We Love to Learn English

Omar and Ahmad loved their school in Amman. One day, Miss Nancy told the class that they would learn English. Omar felt excited but also scared. He whispered to Ahmad, ' - What if we can't do it?' Ahmad nodded, ' - It's going to be hard.' Miss Nancy smiled, ' - Don't worry, we will learn together!'

The next day, Miss Nancy gave them their first English words to learn. Omar tried to say 'apple' but it sounded funny. ' - I can't say it right!' he cried. Ahmad couldn't remember the word for 'cat.' ' - This is too hard,' he said. Miss Nancy encouraged them, ' - Keep trying, it will get easier.'

Miss Nancy introduced a new game to help them learn. They had to find objects in the classroom and say their names in English. Omar found a book but forgot the word. ' - I can't remember!' he said. Ahmad found a pen but said 'pin' instead. ' - We keep getting it wrong,' Ahmad sighed.

Days passed, and Omar felt like giving up. ' - I will never get it right,' he told Ahmad. ' - Maybe we should stop trying,' Ahmad agreed. They sat quietly during English class, feeling sad. Miss Nancy noticed and asked, ' - What’s wrong, boys?' Omar replied, ' - We can't learn English. It's too hard.'

Miss Nancy sat down with them. ' - Learning something new is always hard at first,' she said. ' - But you are brave and smart!' She showed them a picture book with easy English words. ' - Let's try again, together,' she encouraged. Omar and Ahmad looked at each other and nodded. ' - Okay, we'll try.'

Omar and Ahmad practiced with the picture book every day. They started to remember the words and say them correctly. ' - We did it!' Omar cheered one day. Ahmad smiled, ' - We can learn English after all!' Miss Nancy clapped, ' - I knew you could do it!' They felt proud and ready for more challenges.
