📚 Part 1: Read the Stories

Story A: "The New School"

Emma walked nervously into her new classroom at Maple Elementary School. It was her first day in Grade 3, and she didn't know anyone. The teacher, Mrs. Johnson, smiled warmly and showed Emma to her desk by the window. At recess, a friendly girl named Sarah invited Emma to play on the swings. By the end of the day, Emma felt much better about her new school.

Story B: "The Missing Cookie Jar"

Detective Sam noticed the empty cookie jar on the kitchen counter. Crumbs led from the counter to the back door, which was slightly open.
