    Angie loved to draw.  She made colorful designs of people’s names with bright hearts & flowers, but she lost own markers, so she borrowed her teacher’s.  The school day was ending, but Angie wanted to keep coloring, so she took the teacher’s markers home and lost them in her messy room.  She came back to school the next day and wanted to color again, so she asked the teacher for more markers.  The teacher replied, “Sure, Angie, but this is my last pack.”  Angie said she would be careful, but by the end of the day the markers were scattered all over the floor and the custodian swept them up and disposed of them.  When Angie came in the next day, she asked the teacher for more markers, but she was disappointed to find that there weren’t any more.  “I don’t know where all of my markers went,” said the teacher, “but I don’t have them.”  Angie had to draw her pictures with drab pencils.
    WHAT IS THE THEME?
    Markers cost a lot of money.
    Take care of things you borrow. 
    Teachers will help you.

    Once there was a mean little boy who lived in a small village.  This mean little boy loved to mess with people, so one day he ran up to a sheep herder and shouted, “WOLF!  WOLF!  A wolf is attacking the town!”  The sheep herder grabbed his staff and ran to defend the town, but realized he had been fooled when the boy started pointing and laughing at him.  “Ha ha!  I made you jump,” said the boy.  Then the boy ran up to a farmer and shouted, “WOLF!  WOLF!  A wolf is attacking the town!”  The farmer grabbed his pitchfork and ran to defend the town, but when the boy started pointing and laughing at him, he realized he had been tricked.  As the boy went back to his family’s farm laughing about the funny trick he played, he saw a real wolf in his father’s chicken coop.  As the wolf ate all of his father’s chickens, the boy screamed over and over again, “WOLF!  WOLF!  Please help us!”  But nobody came to help him.

    Jenny Puchovier was so excited.  She had a pack of Starburst in her lunch and she had been looking forward to eating them all morning.  Lunch finally came and Jenny sat down to eat her Starbursts when her friend Yudy sat next to her.  “Let me get the pink ones,” said Yudy.  Jenny liked the pink ones best, but she thought Yudy was funny and Jenny wanted Yudy to like her, so Jenny gave Yudy all of her pink Starbursts.  Before Jenny was done giving Yudy the pink ones, Carrie sat on the other side of Jenny.  “Let me get the red and the orange ones, Jenny.  Remember when I gave you that Snickers?”  Jenny didn’t remember that, though she did remember when Carrie ate a whole Snickers in front of her, but Jenny thought Carrie was cool, so she gave her the red and the orange Starbursts.  Now that she only had the yellow ones, Jenny wasn’t so excited about eating starbursts anymore.
    WHAT IS THE THEME?
    Yellow Starbursts are the best. 
    Yudy and Carrie are bad friends.
    Never share. 
    You don't have to give people things to be their friend.
