Today is Mark’s birthday! Tommy is very excited. Mark’s party is going to be at a ranch. All of the kids will get to ride horses. Mark puts on his jeans and boots. He is putting on his hat when he hears “ping, ping, ping, ping” against his window. He walks to the door and looks out just as thunder rolls. He turns around sadly, and says, “Mom, I guess we can’t ride the horses now!”

Why does Tommy say that he will not get to ride the horses? How do you know?

Caroline took a math test yesterday. She is not sure how she did. The test was hard! Mrs. Fisher is giving back the tests now. Caroline watches as her friends get their papers back. Some smile and some frown. Caroline bites her lip. She is worried. Mrs. Fisher smiles as she gives Caroline’s paper back. Caroline peeks at the grade, and she smiles at Mrs. Fisher.

How do you think Caroline did on the test? Why do you think that?

Our dog Sammy is afraid of thunderstorms. When he hears the thunder, he scratches at the door until someone lets him come into the house. Then, he curls up in a corner until the storm is over.

You just heard thunder. What will probably happen next?
