Dear Nilu,

How are you? I hope everything is fine there.

I know city life is busy. I have heard the news that your city is very hot in this month. That's why I am writing to invite you to spend your vacation with me in my village. I believe you would really like the peace and simplicity of village life. It is such a different experience from the city. Imagine waking up to the sounds of birds singing, enjoying fresh air and greenery all around.

I hope you'll accept this invitation. It will be a big change. I am sure you will love it. Convey my regards to your parents.

Take care and I hope to see you soon.

(Students should create similar dialogues for farmer, tailor, teacher, and gardener.)

A boy was walking on a road. He saw his friends across the road and started waving his hand at them. Without looking, he stepped onto the road just as a car was approaching. The car hit the boy, causing an accident. He was then taken to a hospital for treatment.

My learning from this picture story is: We should always be careful and look both ways before crossing the road. We should not get distracted while walking on the road.
