How Does Chris Medina - What Are Words Work?

Chris Medina’s “What Are Words” is like turning a simple story into something you can touch, see, and feel, just like when you draw a picture or build with blocks.

Imagine you're playing with building blocks. Each block has a letter on it, and together they make up words that tell stories. Chris Medina uses this idea to show how words work, like how bricks fit together in a wall, one after another, making something bigger and more interesting.

• You start with just a few letters, like “C” or “H.”
• Then you put them together: “CH,” then “CHR,” until you have the whole word, Chris.
• Just like building blocks stack up to make a tower, letters stack up to make words and stories.

When Chris sings his song, he's not just singing, he’s showing how each letter is part of something bigger. It's like when you build a house with blocks: without the right pieces, the house might fall apart, but with the right ones, it stands strong and tall!
