Can you help me to choose the best answer to fill in the blank to this question?

Goonight Owl is a good __________ because the children can make the animal sounds while the teacher
tells the story.

1. acting story
2. fable
3. story song
4. participation song

would it be (1)acting story or
(2)participation story?

Probably participation, since the teacher is reading. The children wouldn't be acting (on their own) but participating "while the teacher tells the story."

I believe it's a participation story. Isn't an acting story one that children act out? Making animal sounds isn't really acting out a story.

To determine the best answer to fill in the blank, we can analyze the sentence and the options provided.

The sentence mentions that the children can make animal sounds while the teacher tells the story. This suggests that the story involves some level of participation from the children.

Option 1, "acting story," does not directly indicate participation from the children. It implies that the story involves acting, but it doesn't specify if the children actively participate or simply listen and act out the story.

Option 2, "fable," refers to a short story that usually includes a moral or a lesson. While fables can be engaging, they don't necessarily involve active participation from the children.

Option 3, "story song," implies that the story is told through a song. Though it may be interactive, it doesn't necessarily mean the children actively participate by making animal sounds.

Option 4, "participation song," specifically mentions participation. This option seems to align with the sentence indicating that the children make animal sounds while the story is being told.

Based on this analysis, option 4, "participation song," would be the best answer to fill in the blank.
