Ms. Sanchez is a teacher who devoted her life to teaching the children. During
weekdays, she teaches at school, and on weekends she gathers all the neighboring children
and teaches them to read, write and count.
One day, the barangay officials noticed the kindness done by Ms. Sanchez to the
children. They decided to go to her house. As they reached Ms. Sanchez’s house, they were
so surprised to see a miniclassroom in her garden where the children learn to count, write,
and read.
Ms. Sanchez was also surprised to see the Barangay Officials in her house. She
hurriedly entertained them. They asked Ms. Sanchez if she is willing to be a volunteer
teacher in the Literacy Program of the barangay.
Without much hesitation, she accepted being a volunteer teacher on the Literacy
Program. The barangay officials leave her house happily.
Junk food is unhealthy. That is not new to us. It’s greasy, fatty; and if eaten regularly,
definitely won’t help anyone to be healthy.
However, as unhealthy as it may seem, it is still one of those temptations that seems
hard to say no to. But if you want to stick to a healthy lifestyle, then eating junk food is none
of the choices.
Make your body always healthy. Stop eating junk food because there are no vitamins
in it. It can never help you maintain a good and healthy body.
Instead of eating junk foods, there are lots of nutritious food that can help your body
become healthier. These foods can make us healthy.
Ask yourself this, “Will I let junk food tempt me, or not? Well, it's our choice.
Temptations are hard to fight but in the end, you will be rewarded with the health you have
been taking care of.
