Mae Plants Some Seeds
Read the story carefully. Then answer each question in your best handwriting.
Mae got a little packet of seeds from her grandma. The packet had a picture of big red tomatoes on it. Mae was very excited.
She dug three small holes in the garden dirt. She dropped one seed in each hole and covered them up. Then she watered the ground gently.
Every morning, Mae checked the garden. For many days she saw nothing. She started to wonder if the seeds were okay.
Then one day, tiny green sprouts pushed up through the dirt! Mae jumped up and down. She could not wait to see the tomatoes grow big and red.
