Melania Learns to Talk
Join Melania, a cheeky five-year-old with a love for flower earrings, as she navigates the challenges of learning to communicate in her school in Barry, Wales. With each setback, Melania learns the value of wisdom and perseverance.
Melania was excited to start her day at school in Barry, Wales. But today was special because she wanted to learn to talk just like her friends. Her teacher, Miss Evans, had said speaking words would help her share her ideas. Melania was determined, but it seemed like a gigantic mountain to climb. Her friends were already chatting happily, and Melania wanted to join them. The problem was, she didn't know where to start.
During circle time, Melania tried to say 'hello' to her friend Sam. Her lips moved, but no sound came out. Miss Evans noticed and encouraged her, but Melania felt stuck. She felt like she was in a maze with no way out. Sam smiled and said hello back, but Melania wished she could reply. The first obstacle was much harder than she thought.
Melania tried again during art class. She wanted to ask for the red paint, but the words wouldn't come. Instead, she pointed, feeling frustrated. Miss Evans helped her, but Melania felt like everyone could talk except her. She watched her classmates chat and laugh, feeling more alone. " - Why can't I do it?" Melania whispered to herself.
At recess, Melania sat by herself on the bench, feeling like giving up. The words seemed so far away, like stars in the sky. Her cheeks puffed up with frustration, and she crossed her arms. " - Maybe I should just stop trying," she thought. But deep inside, she didn't want to give up. Maybe she just needed some help.
Miss Evans noticed Melania's struggles and came to sit beside her. " - I have an idea, Melania," she said softly. " - Let's use pictures to help your words." Melania's eyes lit up with curiosity. They created a book with drawings of things Melania loved, like flowers and her favorite toys. Slowly, she began to connect the pictures with words. " - This is fun!" Melania giggled.
With her new picture book, Melania felt more confident. She showed it to Sam and used it to say 'hello' and 'thank you'. Sam clapped and cheered, " - You did it, Melania!" Melania beamed with pride, realizing she had found a way to share her words. Now, she couldn't wait to learn even more. Wisdom had helped her along the way, and she felt ready to tackle new challenges.
