St. Simon's Elementary School, 1st Grade

Hey!  Where's my Hay?

Weirdo was a big, fat horse.  He LOVED hay, especially the thick, yellow yummy kind.  He also liked to share.  Sharing hay is the beginning of what happened last week when things got very exciting in the barnyard!

Weirdo was eating hay when Kate, a ram who liked to take stuff that didn't belong to her, came by and asked if Weirdo would share his hay.  Of course he said, "Yes, I will share with you!"

When Weirdo gave Kate a small pile of hay, she grabbed ALL of the hay and took off running!  She thought this was a fun game, but Weirdo did not think so.  He called Tom, an old red horse, and asked Tom to help him get the hay back. Tom is the fastest horse in the barnyard and Kate could not escape fast enough.

Tom caught Kate and called the police.  Kate asked, "Why did you call the police?"  Tom replied, "Because you took something that did not belong to you and that is wrong."  Kate began to cry.  She was just playing and did not realize she had done anything wrong.  Tom asked Kate if she would stop taking things that were not hers, and she promised to change. 

When the police arrived, Tom told them to go back to the police station.  Everything was alright.  Tom then took Kate to Weirdo's barn and she apologized.  Weirdo, Tom amd Kate all became good friends and Kate never took stuff again if it did not belong to her.

What will the three friends do next?  Write the next adventure or draw a picture to illustrate this story!
