telling a story in front?

Very good!
(The teacher will read the story)

The story is entitled

“The Rabbit and Tortoise”

One day a rabbit was boasting about

how fast he could run. He was
laughing at the turtle for being so slow.
Much to the rabbit’s surprise, the turtle
challenged him to a race. The rabbit
thought this was a good joke and
accepted the challenge. The fox was
to be the umpire of the race. As the
race began, the rabbit raced way
ahead of the turtle, just like everyone
thought.
The rabbit got to the halfway point and
could not see the turtle anywhere. He
was hot and tired and decided to stop
and take a short nap. Even if the turtle
passed him, he would be able to race
to the finish line ahead of him. All this
time the turtle kept walking step by
step by step. He never quit no matter
how hot or tired he got. He just kept
going.
However, the rabbit slept longer than
he had thought and woke up. He could
not see the turtle anywhere! He went
at full speed to the finish line but found
the turtle there waiting.
 Moral lesson: Slow and steady wins
the race.
Yes, teacher!
