Read together
In a family, big or small,
There are always relatives who stand tall,
Your grandparent is your elder guide,
With stories and love they always provide.
Your nephew is a little guy,
Whose mischief can make you sigh,
And if you have a niece, so fair,
Her laughter can fill the air.
Your stepbrother and stepsister too,
May seem new but they're family too,
Your half-brother is a friend for life,
A bond that will never cause strife.
And then there's your stepfather,
A man who takes care of you like no other,
And your stepmother, always there to lend a hand,
A motherly figure in your family band.
So cherish each and every one,
In your family, big or small, they're all fun,
Together, you can create memories that last,
A family bond, strong and steadfast.

Reflection
- What kind of preparation do you think the girl could have done before going into the woods to avoid getting lost?
- How did the girl feel when she realized she was lost, and what did she do to keep herself calm and focused?
- What are some survival skills the girl had to use to find her way back to her family?
- How do you think the girl's experience of being lost in the woods changed her, if at all?
- Do you think the girl's family could have done anything differently to prevent her from getting lost, or to help her once they realized she was missing?
