My First Day at School
My mother accompanied me to school on the first day. Other parents accompanied their
children as well. We all waited in front of the school office.
Soon a teacher came and led us to some classrooms. There we were put into four separate
classes. This was when some children began to cry as the parents were not allowed into the
classrooms. I did not cry because I had been to kindergarten before. Actually my mother went
home soon after for she knew I would be all right. It was an enjoyable time for me as I got to
know my new classmates. The teacher was very busy writing down our particulars so we had
plenty of time to ourselves. Meantime some children continued to sob while their parents looked
in anxiously through the windows.
Soon recess came. Some of us headed for the tuck-shop while the rest headed for their
parents. I bought a drink with the money my mother gave me. Getting to know my new friends
had made me thirsty. After recess we went back to our classroom and my new friends and I
managed to coax two boys to stop crying. In fact, soon we were laughing and playing together.
Once in a while the teacher had to tell us to keep quiet as we were making too much noise. Still
some parents looked in anxiously through the windows.
Finally the bell rang for us to go home. Some of us were very relieved to be reunited with our
parents. I too was glad to see my mother waiting for me at the school gate. I had made many
friends. It had been a wonderful first day at school.

Sometimes during their orbits, the moon and the Earth form a line with the Sun. When this
happens, an eclipse occurs.

There are two kinds of eclipse - lunar and solar. A lunar eclipse happens when the Earth moves
between the Sun and the moon, blocking part of the Sun's light from reaching the moon. During a
lunar eclipse, you will see the Earth's shadow on the moon.

In a solar eclipse, the moon moves between the Earth and the Sun. When this happens, part of the
Sun's light is blocked. The sky slowly gets dark as the moon moves in front of the Sun. When the
moon and Sun are in a perfect line, it is called a total eclipse. These are very rare. Most people only
see one in their lifetime.
