Once upon a time there was a group of ants who lived in a colony. They had strong muscles and used them to protect their colony and the soil they lived in. One day, they noticed that the soil around them was becoming dry and hard. They knew they had to do something important to help it. They decided to work together to find a solution. They worked hard and dug through the soil to find water for their colony. They also worked to bring back food for their mates. The ants learned that working together and knowing what was important was the key to success. They protected the soil and their colony by using their muscles and working together.

Reflections
