Amy was a child who was from Taiwan. When she needed to talk to someone, she didn't know anyone. At recess when she saw a group of girls playing together she wanted to play with them ,but she was afraid to talk to them so she would walk away. She saw a girl who looked lonely, but Amy did not talk to her. Amy went to play swing by herself.
After that, Mrs. Johnson said "find a partner to talk with", Amy looked around, but no one came near her to ask "Can you be my partner?" Because her English was not good, she was afraid to talk to other children. At lunch time, she sat alone. When literacy time came, the teacher said "please sit on the carpet". On the carpet, the teacher told a story but Amy wasn't listening since she did not know a lot of the words. After literacy, Amy went home.
The next day she went to school. This day she saw the girl as same as yesterday, the teacher said to Amy "you can be her partner”, so they sat next to each other. Her name was Jiyeon. She looked like she was from Taiwan also, but she was not. She was from Korea. At recess they played together, talked together, read together. Amy was happy because she got a new friend!
