BELLWORK :: ORGANIZATION ACTIVITY # 5

It started to rain. Then, we got soaked. Next, we ran into the building. The thunder lasted for hours. I was so scared because I don't like thunderstorms! I'm scared of lightening, too, because one of my close family members was stuck by lightening and died. I asked the teachers if I could go to the basement because I was so scared. But, they said no. They just don't understand how I feel. I also have anxiety. So it's really hard on me. Finally, the thunderstorm stopped and we got ot go home.
