Read together
Once upon a time, there was a mouse who loved to write stories. He had a pen, a ruler, and a notebook, but no computer. So, he decided to sneak into a classroom to use the teacher's computer. The mouse snuck in, hopped onto the keyboard and started typing away. But every time he hit a key, the rubber on the end of the teacher's ruler would tap on the board and interrupt his typing. The mouse tried to hide in a bag, but the teacher found him and gently scolded him for not asking to use the computer. The mouse apologized and promised to ask next time. And so, the mouse learned an important lesson about manners and technology. The end.
