Alison Lester: I reckon we could make a book too. Are you ready? Alright. Let's do a book about you. What sort of things do you kids do?
Are you sporty kids? Would sport be a good category? I think we should maybe have four categories. So, if we had sport for
one, what else could we have? What about food? Is food good?
Children: Yes
Alison: What else do you do? Families? Fun? Clothes?
Children: TV
Alison: Oh, TV would be just one thing like a ... games would be good, that's different to sport do you think? Or we'll put games
in with sport? All right, games and what, one more, festivals maybe, or ... What?
Children: Vegetables.
Alison: Vegetables?
Children: School.
Alison: School would be good, okay. So we need six different things for sport. Who does an interesting sport?
Girl: Soccer
Alison: What's your name?
Girl: Naomi.
Alison: So could we say, 'Naomi plays soccer?' Or, 'Naomi scores at soccer' would sound better, wouldn't it? I'll just put 'Naomi

Girl: Tennis.
Alison: Tennis. What's your best shot?
Girl: Backhand.
Alison: Backhand. And what's your name?
Girl: Tahlia.
Alison: So, could I say Tahlia, you could write 'Tahlia smashes a backhand.' Who hasn't got one yet? Think, think. It could be food,
games, school. Yep?
Girl: Netball.
Alison: Ah, I'm a netballer too. What's your name?
Girl: Rachel.
Alison: I bet you're good, are you? Are you a goaler or a defender?
Girl: I don't know, I just like playing it.
Alison: Ah, good. What's your name again?
Girl: Rachel.
Alison: Yeah?
Girl: Does reading count as school?
Alison: Yeah, reading would be good. What's your name?
Girl: Nancy.
Alison: Nancy. Any other good school ones? If you haven't got one it doesn't have to be your most favourite thing of anything. Yeah?
Girl: Food. Pizza.
Alison: Pizza. What's your name?
Girl: Gloria.
Alison: Who's left? Put your hand up if you haven't got one yet. What's yours?
