Once upon a time, there was a teacher who had a ruler, a computer, a mouse, a pen, a board, a bag, a keyboard, and a book. One day, while the teacher was out of the room, the rulers, computer, mouse, pen, board, bag, keyboard, and book all came to life. The ruler straightened itself up and declared itself the ruler of the room. The computer beeped with excitement and said it would help run the kingdom. The mouse scurried around gathering information, the pen wrote down important notes, the board became the wall of the castle, the bag held all the treasure, the keyboard played music and the book acted as the advisor. The teacher returned to find the room in disarray but with a smile, she joined in on the fun and they all lived happily ever after. The end.

3. Why was the mouse scurrying around?
4. What was the pen used for in the kingdom?
5. How did the board become part of the castle?
6. What did the bag hold in the story?
7. What did the keyboard play in the kingdom?
8. What role did the book play in the kingdom?
