Story:
A New Friend in Class
It
was the first day of school. Fatima walked into her classroom and saw a
new student sitting alone.
She smiled and said, “Hello! My name is Fatima. What’s your name?”
The new girl replied, “Hi, I’m Hodan. I’m new here.”
Fatima said kindly, “Welcome to our school, Hodan! Where are you from?”
“I’m from Borama,” Hodan said shyly.
Fatima smiled. “That’s nice! Let me introduce you to my friends.”
She called Amina and Ali over. “This is my new friend Hodan.
She’s from Borama.”
Amina said, “Nice to meet you, Hodan!” and Ali added, “Welcome to our class!”
Hodan felt happy and said, “Thank you all. I think this will be a wonderful
year!”
Moral: A
friendly introduction can create a new friendship.
