Once upon a time there was a girl called Thandi.

She loved to dance and danced everyday.

1

Everyday she would go to school. She got up                early, brushed her hair and teeth and went to                  school.

2

     At school she would dance. Thandi danced and            danced. She put on little shows for the children.

3

      One day a teacher saw her dancing and she told           one of her friends who ran a dance studio.

4

      The woman who ran the dance studio was                     pleased to meet Thandi and offered her a place at       the studio, in the city!    .

5

       Thandi said yes, it was her dream!And she lived               happily ever after!
