I am Luca. I am four years old, and I just started Kindy. It is exciting, but also a little bit scary. There are so many new things—new teachers, new friends, and a big new playground! Every morning, my grown-up walks me to the Kindy room. Some days, I feel happy. Other days, I feel nervous and want to stay longer. When I feel worried, my tummy feels funny, and I want to cry. Mrs. Kubicek showed me the Zones of Regulation chart. She told me feeling worried is the blue zone, and that it is okay. To feel better, I can take deep breaths, press my hug button, or give a big hug before saying, “See you later!” When I miss my family, I remember that they love me always, and I will see them again soon when I get home. This helps me feel safe. When I get to the Kindy room, I put my bag, crunch and sip, and water bottle in their places. This helps me get ready for the day. Before Kindy starts, I can play with the trucks and puzzles. Sometimes, I do this with Mum or Dad before they say goodbye. That helps me feel braver. Recess and Lunch At recess, all the children go outside to eat and play. I feel nervous and stay near the wall. Mrs. Kubicek notices and says, “Luca, would you like to sit with Milani and Bodhi?” I nod. Milani and Bodhi smile and say, “Come sit with us!” That makes me feel good inside. I move into the green zone—calm and happy! Sometimes, I want to stay with Mrs. Kubicek at recess and lunch. But when she leaves, I feel sad. She reminds me that it is important to play with my friends. I take a deep breath, press my hug button, and find Milani and Bodhi. Once I start playing, I feel much better! At the end of the day, I pack my bag and sit on the mat. When I see my grown-up waiting, I run to give them a big hug. “How was your day?” they ask.I smile and say, “I played with Milani and Bodhi.” Each day, I feel a little braver. If I feel nervous, I can take deep breaths, press my hug button, or ask for help. Kindy is full of adventures, and I am ready for them all!

2nd Grade Version To understand why the American Revolution happened, we need to look back at the years from 1754 to 1763. During this time, the British and the French were fighting in a war on land that is now part of the United States. This war is called the French and Indian War. The British wanted to control more land, and the French wanted to keep their land. Many Native Americans chose to help either the British or the French during this war. In 1759, British soldiers went to a city called Québec in Canada and won a big battle there. They took over another city called Montréal the next year. After that, there weren't many big battles left between the British and the French in North America. The fighting mostly stopped by 1763 when a peace agreement called the Treaty of Paris was signed. Why did the British start taxing the colonists, and why did this make them mad? The British government made laws and taxes that affected the colonists. Many colonists felt proud to be British, but they believed they had rights that the king should protect. They didn't like the Stamp Act, which was a new tax. In Virginia, some leaders, called the House of Burgesses, said that the British Parliament shouldn’t be taxing them. In 1765, the prime minister of Britain was George Grenville. He created the Stamp Act because he needed money to pay for British soldiers in North America. He thought the colonists should help pay for these soldiers who were protecting them. At first, the British leaders were surprised by how upset the colonists were. Grenville did not listen to their complaints and was eventually replaced in 1766. A leader named George Washington fought in the French and Indian War along with the British. He helped lead soldiers against the French. He became a well-known leader and was even elected to help make laws in Virginia.

Mello was excited and a bit nervous. It was his first day at a new school. With his backpack filled and a big smile on his face, he walked into class. But something stood out—he was the only Black student there. The other kids glanced at him but quickly returned to their conversations. Mello took a deep breath and sat down. He wasn’t sure if anyone would talk to him, but he knew he wanted to make friends and learn. At recess, Mello saw a group playing tag. He really wanted to join, but wasn’t sure if they’d let him. Gathering courage, he asked, “Can I play too?” The kids exchanged glances. Tristan asked, “Where are you from?” “I’m from another school,” Mello said. “But I love playing tag.” The kids still seemed unsure. Skylar spoke up, “I’ve never had a friend like you before.” Mello smiled. “That’s okay! I’ve never had friends like you either. We can learn from each other.” There was a pause, then Tristan shrugged. “Sure! You’re it!” he said, tapping Mello’s shoulder. Mello laughed and chased them. As they played, Mello realized it didn’t matter that he looked different—what mattered was having fun together. After the game, Skylar told Mello, “You’re fast! I’m glad you joined us.” From that day, Mello and his new friends found how much they had in common. They loved the same games, cartoons, and jokes. But they also learned from each other. Tristan was curious about Mello’s favorite foods, and Mello enjoyed learning about Skylar’s family traditions. Mello realized that being different wasn’t something to fear—it made him special. His friends saw that their differences made their friendship even stronger. In the end, Mello knew one thing for sure: being unique wasn’t just okay—it was beautiful.
