Teacher: Carrie

Last year it was snowing too much in the city. My parents couldn't drive because there was too much snow. My parents had to wake up early and they had to walk to their center. A man asked us to help him.  We had to push his car because there was too much snow.  It was hard but we thought it was a good idea because it was helpful.  

Usually we only see snow in the country, but last year there was a lot of snow in the city too! My friends and I were very surprised because it had been 100 years since it had snowed so much in the city.  We had snow fights, made snow angels, and we drew some pictures in the snow.  I wish my puppy had played with us but my puppy doesn't like the cold, so my puppy didn't go outside.  Playing in the snow was a lot of fun because it was so special to us since it was such a heavy snow!

Discussion questions: 

Tell me about what you understood from the story!

1. How did they help the man? 

2. Why do you think there is normally more snow in the country than in the city? 

3. What did Sophie and her friends do in the snow? 

4. Why didn't her puppy join them?
