HANDWRITING (5)

7. Rewrite the passage in your neat and cursive handwriting:

There was an old owl that lived in an oak. Every day he saw incidents happening around him.
Yesterday he saw a boy helping an old man to carry a heavy basket. Today he saw a girl
shouting at her mother. The more he saw the less he spoke. As he spoke less, he heard more.
He heard people talking and telling stories. He heard a woman saying that an elephant
jumped over a fence. The old owl had seen and heard about what happened to people. The old
owl had become wiser each and every day by listening to them.
