Theme RL 4.2 Reteach

Kara chose a difficult piece of music to play for her recital even though her teacher recommended an easier one. She practiced every day after school instead of playing with her friends. Kara thought about giving up, but instead she doubled her practice time. At the recital she made a couple of mistakes. She was so proud of herself that her smile was huge.

• Challenge yourself and you will be rewarded.
• Practice makes perfect.

Kevin had 3 weeks to complete a book report. He knew he would get it done eventually so he didn't start right away. He played his new video game, went to his cousin's house, and went to a football game with his friends. The night before the book report was due he still hadn't even read the book. He was not looking forward to seeing his teacher the next day.

• Do your homework right away.
• Don't put off important tasks. Sooner is better.

Sarah didn't play with the new girl, Laila, at recess. No one did. Laila dressed weird, had a weird accent, and didn't like to play any games. One day the teacher made Sarah do an assignment with Laila. Sarah learned that they liked the same music, the same food, and both took jazz dance class.

• Don't be afraid to try new things. 
• Listen to your teacher.
