Last week, there was one really, really bad day. It was Monday. Usually, there
are about 25 students in my class, but that day, there were only 5 people! It
wasn't warm. In fact, it was really cold. It was raining a lot. It was dark and
gray outside. There wasn't any sunshine. I think the students weren't at
school because they were sick. They were at home. Maybe they were in bed.
Mr. Jibbit is our teacher. He is always at school. He is never at home on a
Monday. Last Monday was no different. He was not in bed. He was in the
classroom, and he was cold! Why was he so cold? That's a very good
question. He was cold because the heater in the school was broken. It was
freezing. The school was like a refrigerator. Our room was like a freezer! And
poor Mr. Jibbit was like ice! The small class was cold, cold, cold! The next
days were much warmer. The heater was fixed on Tuesday, so everything
was ok. There were 25 students, not only 5. But where was Mr. Jibbit? He
wasn't there. He was at home, sick in bed!
True or False? 1. There were 25 students in the class that Monday. (F/T) 2. It
was warm that day. 3. Mr. Jibbit was present that Monday. 4. The heater in
the school was working that day. 5. Mr. Jibbit and the students felt cold that
day. 6. The heater was broken on Tuesday. 7. The next days were warmer. 8.
Mr. Jibbit had to stay at home because he got sick.
