Sally the Seagull flew through the air and spotted a struggling fish. Sally decided to take a closer look to see if she could help the fish. “Hey fish, what’s got you struggling so?” she asked. “I got caught up” replied the fish. “That fisherman is trying to take me for a ride” the fish continued. Sally looked up and saw the fisherman trying to reel in the fish. Sally thought for a moment, “why don’t you ask him to let you go?” she said. “Well I never thought of that,” remarked the fish. So the fish got up all of its might, jumped out of the water and yelled, “LET ME GO! Please!”, he said please because he was a polite fish after all. The fisherman didn’t move, he just kept trying to reel the fish in. “Well, what did he say?” asked Sally. “He doesn’t speak fish” replied the fish. Sally thought maybe she could try to talk to the fisherman. She flew over to him and said “excuse me, sir, but could you please let my friend the fish go?” But the fisherman only heard “caw, caw, caw caaaw, caw caw.” Sally flew back to the fish. The fish asked, “is he going to let me go?” “No” Sally replied, “he doesn’t speak seagull.” Just then a sea otter swam up, he had heard them talking and was wondering what the commotion was all about. The sea otter asked the fish, “what’s going on over here?”

Instruction: 1. illustration very simple During the Civil War, the Transcontinental Railroad aimed to link the U.S. coasts. The Central Pacific Railroad started in Sacramento, CA, employing Chinese laborers, and the Union Pacific in Omaha, NE, with Irish immigrants, Civil War veterans, and freed slaves. Up to 20,000 Chinese workers joined, including 12-year-old Li Wei and his father, who faced discrimination with lower pay and no food or housing. The work was extremely dangerous, with rockslides, explosions, and avalanches, especially in the Sierra Nevada, where workers faced harsh winters and isolation. Sadly, Li Wei’s father died in a rockslide. In 1867, Li Wei and many Chinese workers went on strike for better pay and conditions, but saw limited success. Tensions rose with Native American tribes, like the Cheyenne, who derailed a train near Plum Creek, NE, reflecting the challenges of westward expansion. Despite these struggles, progress continued. On May 10, 1869, the railroad was completed at Promontory Summit, UT, marking a new era in American transportation. Afterward, Li Wei and others faced discrimination in finding work and often lived in isolated Chinatowns. On October 24, 1871, violence erupted in Los Angeles’ Chinatown, killing 19 Chinese, including Li Wei’s friend. In 1875, grieving, Li Wei returned to China. The Transcontinental Railroad was transformative, yet costly for Chinese workers who made up most of the Central Pacific workforce. Facing discrimination and hazardous conditions, they were key to the railroad’s completion. Over 1,200 Chinese workers died, highlighting their sacrifice. Despite advancing U.S. infrastructure, they encountered ongoing hostility and laws against them. Their resilience underscores their overlooked role in shaping 19th-century America.

One day, Timmy asked Sparkle, "Why do we need to brush our teeth twice a day?" 4. Sparkle smiled and said, "Great question, Timmy! We brush our teeth in the morning to get rid of germs and food from the night. This helps us start the day with a fresh and clean smile!" 5. Timmy was curious, so he asked, "What about before bed? Why is that important?" 6. Sparkle twinkled and explained, "Brushing before bed is super important because it helps remove all the germs and food that stick to your teeth during the day. If we don’t brush before sleeping, those germs can cause cavities and make your teeth unhappy." 7. Timmy nodded and said, "So, brushing twice a day keeps my teeth healthy and happy!" 8. Sparkle said, "Exactly! And remember, it only takes a few minutes each time to keep your smile bright and strong." 9.

The Talking Toy In the small, snowy town of Everpine, Meghan and her friends—Lila, Sam, and Benny—were playing near the park when Meghan spotted something under a bench. It was a small, colorful toy, with red and green stripes and a button in the center. When Meghan pressed it, a soft jingle played, followed by a faint voice: “Help…find…” “Open it!” Sam urged. Meghan shook her head. “No. It’s not ours. Someone’s probably really sad without it.” Her friends groaned, but Meghan was determined. “We’ll find the owner and return it before Christmas,” she declared. The Search Back home, Meghan and her friends made posters that read “FOUND TOY” with a drawing of the object and her number. They wandered the snowy streets, putting up posters and asking neighbors, shopkeepers, and passersby. “Anyone lose a toy?” Benny would ask, holding it up. No one recognized it. By the fourth day, hope dwindled, but Meghan refused to give up. The Grumpy Shopkeeper Outside Suthie’s General Store, the kids hesitated. Mr. Suthie had a reputation for being mean. “We shouldn’t go here,” Sam whispered. “Every place counts,” Meghan said, her voice firm. When Meghan approached the shop’s bulletin board, the door creaked open, and Mr. Suthie appeared. “What are you kids doing?” he barked. Meghan explained nervously. Mr. Suthie frowned but surprised them by saying, “Put it up. Make it neat.” “You’re doing a good thing,” he added, his voice softening. “People don’t care about small things anymore.” The kids were speechless but thanked him before moving on. Finding Ethan Days later, outside the town’s church, they saw a boy staring at the Christmas rehearsal through frosty glass. Meghan approached. “Are you okay?” The boy, Ethan, nodded hesitantly. “I… lost something important.” Meghan held up the toy. “Is this it?” Ethan’s eyes lit up. “It’s mine! My sister made it for me before she moved away.” Meghan pressed the button: Merry Christmas, Ethan!
