I swallowed hard and tried to concentrate. I had practiced my multiplication facts all summer. It was time to show my new teacher that I knew them. “Why do I forget them sometimes?” I thought to myself. I took a deep breath and started my 100 problem quiz. Before I knew it, I was done. My brain was spinning, but the grade I got was worth it. “100!” mom squealed! “I knew you could do it!” She was so proud of me.

Last summer, I wanted a new bike. “Molly, we can’t buy everything,” my dad said. “Money doesn’t grow on trees.” My dad explained that they had to buy food and pay the bills first. Despite my disappointment, I decided to work to earn the money I needed for a new bike. I washed our neighbors car, pulled weeds from my grandmother’s garden, and mowed a few lawns in our neighborhood. Before long I had earned the money to buy my new bike!
