She is very excited but also a little frightened. They are all in the hall and the principal is welcoming all the new learners. Fortunately Linda’s best friend, Paula, is also a new learner. All the new learners remain behind when the others go to their classes. The teacher takes the new learners to a classroom where she tells them to sit down. Linda is sitting next to Paula who comes from the same village as herself. This makes Linda feel relaxed. There are many pictures and charts on the wall. Paula’s puppy, Snoopy, followed her to school. She is trying hard to hide him. This frightens Linda because she thinks the teacher might send her, Paula and the puppy home. The boys, however, enjoy playing with Snoopy. They call the little puppy and poor Paula cannot keep him out of sight. As it is the first day, the teacher decides that she does not want to be too strict. She tells Paula to come to the front and tell the class about him - where she got Snoopy and how she cares for him. Paula loves her pet and loves talking about him. Linda is glad. She is no longer frightened because she feels that the teacher is kind. 1. Who is Linda’s best friend? ______________________________________ 4 ### Page 5 Downloaded from hlayiso.com 2.
