Once upon a time, there was a small village surrounded by limestone hills. The villagers built their homes with limestone blocks and put wooden lintels on top to hold the roof. Each home had beautiful louvers to let in light and air. The villagers used lumber to make furniture and toys. They lived happily ever after in their cozy limestone village.

Reflections

1. What kind of materials did the villagers use to build their homes?
2. Why were the louvers important in the homes?
3. What did the villagers use lumber for?
4. How did the villagers feel about their homes and village?
