Do You Need More Sleep?

Have you ever wanted to stay up all night? It’s not really as much fun as 1
you think, and it’s not good for your mind or body.

If you don’t get enough sleep, you can feel grouchy, and your body might 2
become weak, causing you to become sick. There’s something else, too.
Not getting enough sleep also makes it harder to remember things. You
may not be able to do your best work at school.

Most people find some things, such as reading or working on math, harder 3
to do when they don’t get enough sleep. For every hour of sleep you miss,
it takes more time and energy to solve problems.

Sleep is one of those things every animal needs (like air, water, food and 4
exercise). Some animals, such as dolphins, take very short naps throughout
the day. However, humans need to sleep for several hours at a time. It
takes about 10 hours of sleep (fewer for adults) to help you feel well the
next day.

Getting enough sleep is important, because bedtime is when your body 5

rests its tired muscles, builds up energy and gets itself ready for the next
day. It’s also when your brain reviews what you’ve learned, which helps it
make sense of the things you have seen, heard and thought about during
the day.

Do you think more sleep would help you perform better at school? 6

The Scarecrow’s Hat

“That’s a nice hat,” said Chicken to 1

Scarecrow.

“Yes, it is,” replied Scarecrow. “But I’d 2

rather have a walking stick. I’ve been
standing here for years now, and my
arms are so tired. I’d love a walking
stick to lean on. I’d swap my hat for a
walking stick any day.”

Now Chicken didn’t have a walking stick, but she knew someone who did. 3

“That’s a nice walking stick,” said Chicken to Badger. 4

“Yes, it is,” replied Badger. “But I’d rather have a piece of ribbon. It gets hot 5
and stuffy underground, so I prop my door open with my stick. But I’m always
tripping over it. If I had a ribbon, I could tie the door open. I’d swap my
walking stick for a ribbon any day.”

Now Chicken didn’t have a ribbon, but she knew someone who did. 6

“That’s a nice ribbon,” said Chicken to Crow. 7

“Yes, it is,” said Crow. “But I’d rather have some wool. My nest is on this high 8
stone ledge, and it’s very hard to sit on. I’d love some warm, soft wool to line it
with. I’d swap this ribbon for some wool any day.”

Now Chicken didn’t have any wool, but she knew someone who did. 9

“That’s a nice wool coat,” said Chicken to Sheep. 10

Student Booklet: 1
Language 2
Reading Grade 3, Spring

“Yes, it is,” replied Sheep. “But I’d rather have a pair of glasses. I have to keep 11
a lookout for the wolf, and my eyes are not as good as they used to be. I really
need a pair of glasses. I’d swap some of my wool for a pair of glasses any day.”

Now Chicken didn’t have a pair of glasses, but she knew someone who did. 12

“That’s a nice pair of glasses,” said Chicken to Donkey. 13

“Yes, it is,” said Donkey. “But I’d rather have a few feathers. The flies drive me 14
crazy, buzzing around my ears. My tail isn’t quite long enough to flick them
away. But if I had some long feathers tied to the end of it, I could swat them
easily. I’d swap my glasses for a few long feathers any day.”

Quick as a flash, Chicken pulled out one, two, three of her longest feathers and 15
tied them to Donkey’s tail.

Donkey was delighted and, true to his word, swapped his glasses for the 16
feathers.

Chicken took the glasses to Sheep—who swapped them for some of his wool. 17

She took the wool to Crow—who swapped it for her ribbon. 18

She took the ribbon to Badger—who swapped it for his walking stick. 19

Finally, she took the walking stick to Scarecrow. With a grateful sigh of relief, 20
he leaned his tired old arms on the stick and gladly swapped it for his battered
old hat.

Chicken took the hat and filled it with fresh, sweet-smelling straw . . . 21

“That’s a nice nest,” said Duck. 22

“Yes, it is,” said Chicken. “And I wouldn’t swap it for anything!” 23

A Better Place to Be

Javid remembered Mr. Rocci’s words: “Your assignment is due on Friday. 1

Come up with four interesting ideas to make our school a better place for all
of us. Think of ways we can make it cleaner. Think of ways we can make it
healthier. Identify some problems. Suggest solutions.”

Javid’s first idea was easy to find. He had heard the school secretary say, 2
“Perfume gives me a headache.” On his paper, Javid wrote, “1. Don’t wear
perfume to school, so no one gets sick from the smell.”

He remembered the math class when they talked about the small probability 3
that kids will throw their garbage in the cans at recess. Javid wrote, “2. Put
more garbage cans in the schoolyard, so kids don’t have to walk so far.”

At lunchtime, Javid watched the other kids. When he went back to his 4
classroom, he wrote, “3. Don’t throw uneaten fruit away at lunchtime. Put it
into a basket. Share the fruit with anyone who wants it.”

The fourth idea did not come easily. Javid looked 5

around. He listened to conversations. When he
heard a sneeze, Javid saw his best friend wipe her
hand on her jeans. Javid wrote, “4. Sneeze or cough
into a tissue or a handkerchief. Then those germs
will not get on your hands.”

Javid was excited. He read his list and organized his ideas for his report. 6
Could his class really make their school cleaner and healthier? He was proud
that Mr. Rocci thought they could.
