WHERE IS EVERYBODY ELSE?
Tonight only two students are present in Jack’s class. Where is everybody else?
Jack is at home. He is sick. He has a sore throat and a fever. His mom thinks that he has the flu.
Jack wants to go to school but his mom says that he should stay in bed and rest.
Jack can’t go to school today.
Sally’s head hurts very badly. She can’t stand up or walk. She can’t even do her homework.
She wants to go out and play with her friends, but she knows that she can’t.
Her mom is a doctor. She says that Sally should stay at home and rest.
Tom is not feeling okay either. He went out with his friends yesterday evening and ate a lot of hamburgers.
That’s why he has a terrible stomachache. He went to the doctor this morning,
and the doctor said that he has to stay in bed and drink a lot of water.
