Antonio’s Story
I have a friend who lives in another world. Her name is Francisca. The world she lives in is full of light. So she tells me when we meet every Saturday afternoon.
Every Saturday afternoon, my mama takes my hand and we leave the house. We walk a long way- past other houses where people are talking, past one street where there are cars honking. At last, when we hear the sounds of children playing and mothers talking to other mothers, I know we are at the park.
Every Saturday afternoon, here, in this place of happy voices, I meet Francisca who always shouts in her happy voice, “Hello, Antonio! Let’s go! Let’s go!”
And so, Francisca runs to Mama and says hello and takes my hand. Her fingers are small but they are strong.
She takes my hand and we walk. As we walk, she talks and tells me everything she sees along the way:
“Now we are walking near the tree I told you about. “Let’s call it our mango tree. It is tall-taller than you and me and your mama and my papa even if we all stand on each other’s shoulders. Its leaves are shaped like knives. Here feel one. You know it is dry because it is brittle and crumbles easily.
“The tree’s body or the trunk is big, thick and rough. Here touch it! This is the tree that makes wonderful mangoes, all sweet and smooth and golden.”
I smile because I know what a mango tastes like.
Francisca laughs and says, “The way a mango makes your tongue feel is the way light makes me feel.”
Sometimes, when Francisca tells me such things, I feel so sad because I cannot see. My eyes feel nothing except my tears.
But Francisca sees and she sees my hot tears sliding down my cheeks. She holds me tight with her strong fingers and says, “Don’t cry. My eyes are big enough for the two of us.”
And she leads my fingers to her eyes and says:
“Look Antonio:
Red is the color of the sky that when the day and the night meet.
Blue is the color of the sea where the cold fishes play.
Yellow is the color of the sun that makes your cheeks burn, that dries your tears, the same color as the mango that makes your lips sticky and your tongue happy.
Green is the color of the leaves that whisper when the wind blows. And the wind that makes us laugh, that moves our hair, that makes our clothes fly, not even I can see.
See?”
And I laugh to hear funny colors, and soon I forget that I am blind and that she lives in another world.
This is my friend Francisca who is more important to me than having my own eyes.

Tell the pupils that they are going to read a story entitled “Turtle Tale”. Remind the pupils to follow the standards for listening. As they listen to the story find out the answer to this question:
How did Paeng guide the newly hatched sea turtles to the sea?
Turtle Tale
Paeng and Delia loved to play in the beach so much that they would often forget the time. When the sun had set, Paeng would remember that their mother would like them to be home before dark.
One day, Delia saw some prints in the sand that led into the ocean.
“Paeng! Come look at these. I wonder what animal made these prints,” she cried
“I know. I saw the same kind of tracks two years ago. They’re turtle tracks. A turtle came to this beach and laid her eggs. Then I guess she went right back into the ocean,” Paeng replied. “Let’s follow the tracks and look for the nest.”
So they followed the tracks until they came upon the turtle’s nest.
“Where are the eggs?” asked Delia.
“The mother turtle must have covered them with sand to keep the eggs warm,” replied Paeng.
They would have continued with their investigation but it was getting dark. Paeng did not want their mother to worry. So Paeng and Delia raced each other and headed for the light that shone on their porch.
Several weeks passed. One night after supper, Paeng and Delia went outside. They were so surprised at the sight that greeted them in the yard.
“Mama! Mama!” cried Paeng and Delia.
Their mother quickly ran out to the porch to see what was happening.
Paeng’s light shone on dozens and dozens of tiny crawling sea turtles.
“Where did these sea turtles come from?” their mother asked.
Delia remembered the turtle nest. “Mama, we saw a turtle nest several weeks back. Maybe these turtles came from the nest,” she said.
“But why are they here? After they hatch, the sea turtles head towards the light. On beaches where people do not live, the brightest area would be the waves reflecting the light of the moon and the stars. So the turtles followed the house lights. We can help the turtles find their way to the sea if we turn off the lights at night as soon as we finish our chores.”
“It’s a good thing we saw these sea turtles. If they continued crawling away from the sea, they would have been eaten by crabs and other animals.
If they do not reach the sea, they would die from loss of water in their bodies. Come on, let’s guide the turtle to the sea,” continued mother.
Paeng got a lamp and to his delight the sea turtles followed the light of the lamp. When they reached the shore, Paeng waded to the sea and held the lamp.
Before long, the small sea turtles scrambled into the water. They raced in the waves to begin their life in the sea.

From 1943 to 1952, scientists observed the formation of the volcano Paricutin. In February 1943, there was much underground activity near the village of Paricutin, Mexico. It caused many small Earth tremors that worried the villagers. On February 20, Dionisio and Paulo Pulido noticed smoke rising from a small hole in their cornfield near the village. The hole had been there as long as the farmer and his wife could remember. That night hot rock fragments spewing from the hole looked like fireworks. By morning, the fragments had piled up into a cone about 40 meters high. Within two years it was more than 400 meters high. Ash from the volcano burned and covered the village. After nine years, the volcanic activity stopped.
