                     The story given here tells us about a day when something very

                     unexpected happened in school. There was an unusual visitor. Let us
                     find out what happened and how everyone behaved at that time.

               Disha lived in a small town, Maanpur, with her family. It was Monday

               morning. It was time to go to school. Her school bag was packed
               and shoes were already polished. She kept them ready
               before going to bed every

               night. So, it was easy

               for her to leave on
               time the next
               morning. As she

               prepared herself for

               the day, little did
               she know what was
               to come during the

               day.


               Disha had her
               breakfast, picked

               her tiffin box, bag
               and water bottle. She hugged

               her parents and grandparents. “Bye,
               everyone,” said Disha. “Have a good day,                            unexpected  something  sudden

               child,” said her grandparents. “Bye,” said                          and  surprising
               her parents. She ran to the school bus                              unusual visitor  someone  who

               waiting at the gate.                                                visits  a  place  in  an  uncommon
                                                                                   way  or  out  of  the  ordinary  way
               In school, her classroom, IIIB, was very                            wondered  felt  curious  and
                                                                                   excited  by  something  strange
               noisy! She heard excited voices and                                 amazement  a  feeling  of  great
               wondered what was happening. As she                                 surprise

               entered the class, she dropped her bag in
               amazement. “Unbelievable!” said Disha.
