Once upon a time there was a little spider playing in the classroom. She found a smooth white tub to walk around in. All of a sudden some giant children found her. They were scared and called for a teacher. The teacher discovered she wasn’t a dangerous spider so they could safely look at her. The teacher got the special magnifying glass and they carefully put it over her. After taking turns looking at her, the teacher said she had to go live somewhere else. Where did the teacher take the spider?

Once upon a time Ms Kristin was a little girl and followed her teachers directions of circling and underlining things. Then she grew up and was a teacher.

Once upon a time there was a little white disc. It kind of looked like a mint candy. But there was a safety message to NOT but it in your mouth, so it couldn’t be candy. Then the little white disc got dropped in a cup of water. Something amazing happened!
