The Little Match Girl
On a snowy and dark night, a little girl was selling matches in the street.
“Matches, matches,” she cried. The wind was blowing, and the snow was falling. She was cold and hungry. How she wanted to leave the place and go home! But she was afraid to do so. If she did not sell all the matches, her father would punish her. “Perhaps a burning match will warm me up,” she thought. Quickly, she lit three matches. In the light of the matches, she saw delicious food and a Christmas tree. However, they disappeared when the light went out.
The next morning, people found the girl lying against the wall, dead.

Activity 2 Read the text and answer the questions.
One day, a fox invited a stork to his home for dinner. The fox served the soup in a small dish. While the fox enjoyed the delicious soup, the stork couldn’t eat anything because of his long beak. Feeling hungry and angry, the stork left for home.
A few days later, the stork decided to invite the fox to his home for dinner. The stork served delicious meat in a jar with a long neck. The fox’s small mouth prevented him from eating anything, while the stork enjoyed the meal easily by using his long beak. This time, the fox returned home, hungry and angry.
While-reading
1. What do you want to understand or know?
2. Which strategies can you use?
3. How did the strategies help you?
Read and answer
I want to understand the moral or lesson that the story is trying to teach.
I can use strategies like analyzing the characters’ actions and their consequences, and looking for cause - and - effect relationships in the story.
Analyzing the characters’ actions helps me see that the fox and the stork both acted selfishly, and the cause - and - effect relationships show that the fox’s unkind behavior led to him being treated the same way. These strategies help me realize the story might be teaching us to treat others as we want to be treated.
