Working Together

Everyone has to deal with problems. Sometimes

problems are big. Sometimes they are small. Some

are easy to solve. One person could solve them.

Others take more work. It might take more people

to help solve them. It is important to think of ways

to help. Working together is a good place to start.

Trash like this

is a problem.

Fiction

The Dry Garden

Catalina and Mike walk in the

schools garden.

These plants look thirsty!

Catalina says.

Mike says, It hasnt rained in a

long time.

We should give them water, Catalina

adds.

They walk to the hose. Its broken!

Well, thats a problem. How can we

water the plants if the hose is broken?

asks Mike.

I have an idea! exclaims Catalina.

They walk to some children playing

tetherball.

Mike says, The plants need water, but

the hose is broken.

We can make a line of kids from

the fountain to the garden, Catalina

suggests.

Ill fill bottles. You pass them down

the line, adds Mike.

That will take a lot of kids! their

friend Hugo says.

Luckily, there are a lot of us!

Catalina says with a smile.

Nonfiction

Having a Plan

When a problem happens, the best thing to do

is come up with a plan. Plans help keep the goal

in mind. Even when a problem can be solved on

your own, it is good to have a plan. This way,

you know what to do to reach the goal.

Asking for Help

Everyone needs help sometimes.

Thats why it is always OK to

ask for help.

More Is Better

Think about a problem you have had.

Maybe you forgot where you put a toy. How

did you find it? You probably came up with

a plan to look in different places. That is an

easy problem to solve by yourself.
