Chapter 2: no place for Rafi

On Tuesday, Rafi arrives at school early. He wants to make friends.

At break time, three boys play football in the school yard. Rafi walks over and asks to play with them. But the boys have enough players. Rafi walks away and sits near the classroom.

Later, the teacher asks the students to work in pairs. Rafi looks around, but nobody asks him to work with them. The teacher puts him with Dimas.

The boys must write about their town. Dimas knows the streets and shops. Rafi knows the local market and the small villages near the river.

Rafi draws a map. He adds some places near the river. Dimas writes the names of the places. They work well together.

The teacher likes their work. Dimas feels happy, and Rafi feels proud. They finish the task together.

Rafi now feels a little better. Perhaps school is not so bad after all.

Remember how babies
learn a language:

Babies learn a language by listening.
They use their ears to hear sounds.
Their brain remembers these sounds.
Babies connect sounds with people and things.
They listen to their parents.
Then they copy the sounds they hear. They imitate words.
Slowly, babies learn to speak.

So,
LISTEN, LISTEN, LISTEN, LISTEN………………
