Question

As Bholi was being taken to school, she was frightened. She remembered their old cow Lakshmi had been turned out of the house and sold. She cried and shouted in terror as she was led to the school. However, her teacher changed her life. Based on your understanding of the story, develop a conversation between them. You may begin like this:

Teacher: Bholi, what a pretty dress you are wearing! And you have such nice long hair. Come on, give us a smile.

Bholi: I am so scared. I’ve never been out of the house before.

Answer 1

Teacher: Don't be scared, Bholi. You are in a safe place now. We are all your friends here, and we are here to help you learn and grow.

Bholi: But I saw what happened to our old cow Lakshmi. She was turned out of the house and sold. I am afraid the same thing will happen to me.

Teacher: Oh, Bholi, that is a terrible thing to happen to a cow or anyone else. But I promise you, we will never let anything like that happen to you. We will always protect you and make sure that you are safe.

Bholi: Thank you, teacher. But I am also scared because I have never been to school before. I don't know anything.

Teacher: That's alright, Bholi. You don't have to know anything. That's why you are here. We will teach you everything you need to know. We will start with the basics, and soon you will be reading and writing and speaking like a pro.

Bholi: Really? You think I can do it?

Teacher: Absolutely, Bholi. I know you can do it. You just have to believe in yourself and trust in us. We are here to help you every step of the way.

Bholi: Okay, teacher. I will try my best.

Teacher: That's all I ask, Bholi. Now let's get started, shall we? We have a lot to learn today.
