<p>Once upon a time there were two frogs, they were both green with spots on them. &nbsp;They lived in different places and were not happy, because they told themselves every day there must be something better out there in the big world.</p>
<p>The one lived close to the beach and the other one lived in a pond in the park.</p>
<p>They were bored and decided that they wanted to go and see other places.</p>
<p>The frog that lived at the beach thought he wants to live in a pond, he is sure he will be much happier there. &nbsp;The frog that lived in the pond decided that he would love to live at the beach. &nbsp;He was sure he will be much happier there.</p>
<p>Early the next morning, both the frogs started hopping to the places they thought will give them more happiness and excitement.</p>
<p>At the top of the hill, the two frogs met each other. &nbsp;"Good morning pond frog, I am on my way to see the lovely place you live by the pond."</p>
<p>"Good morning beach frog, I am also on my way to see the beach, because I am sure I will be happier there", said the frog from the pond.</p>
<ul>
  <li><em>When does this story take place?</em></li>
  <li><em>At which places did these frogs live?</em></li>
  <li><em>Why did they both decide to go to another place?</em></li>
  <li><em>Where did they meet each other?</em></li>
  <li><em>Did they speak to one another? &nbsp;What did they say?</em></li>
</ul>
<p>"We have been walking so far, if we were taller we could see the beach and the pond and decide if we still want to go there", the beach frog said.</p>
<p>"I have a great idea. &nbsp;We stand on our hind legs, hold onto each other and have a look at where we want to go." the pond frog suggested.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>The beach frog faced the pond and the pond frog faced the beach. &nbsp;They held on to each other and because their eyes are on top of their heads, they had to bend their heads backwards to see better. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>The silly thing is they did not realize that they were looking back at their own houses now.</p>
<p>"O dear," the pond frog said, the beach looks exactly like my home. &nbsp;I do not want to go there."</p>
<p>The beach frog said: "Your house looks exactly like mine, I do not want to go there."</p>
<p>The frogs decided they are rather going to go back to their homes, they did not want to go to a place that looked exactly the same as where they came from.</p>
<ul>
  <li><em>Why did the frogs struggle to see far from the hill?</em></li>
  <li><em>How did they fix this problem?</em></li>
  <li><em>Why did they bend their head backwards?</em></li>
  <li><em>Where was each frog looking?</em></li>
  <li><em>Why did they decide to go home?</em></li>
  <li><em>Do you think there is a lesson to learn from this story and what is it?</em></li>
</ul>
