Once upon a time, there was a teacher named Ms. Smith who loved taking her class on field trips. One day, she planned a trip to the zoo and the students were so excited.

When they arrived, they saw all sorts of animals like lions, monkeys and even an elephant! But the most exciting animal of all was a big, beautiful tiger. The class was amazed by the tiger's power and grace.

Suddenly, the tiger got up and started pacing back and forth. Ms. Smith quickly realized that the tiger was feeling hot and needed some shade. She quickly opened up her umbrella and held it over the tiger to provide some relief from the sun.

The tiger was so grateful that he lay down and fell asleep. The class was so happy to have helped the tiger, they decided to make a tent to keep him cool and comfortable.

The next day, the class returned to the zoo and found the tiger was still there, resting under their tent. The tiger looked healthy and happy. The class was proud of the difference they had made.

As they were leaving, they saw a turtle and an uncle. They were umpires in a turtle race. The class cheered and had a great day at the zoo.

From that day on, the class remembered the importance of kindness and how small actions can make a big difference in the world.

Reflections

1. Why did the class decide to make a tent for the tiger?
2. How did the class feel when they returned to the zoo the next day and saw the tiger healthy and happy under their tent?
3. What did the class learn about the importance of kindness and small actions from this experience?
