“My First Day of School”
First Fears
I remember my first day of school. My big sister Judy
walked me to the door of the kindergarten classroom. I
had never been so nervous in my life. I had butterflies in
my stomach. My knees felt wobbly.
“What if no one likes me?” I said. “What if I don’t know
where to sit? What if I can’t remember my teacher’s
name?”
Judy smiled. I guess she was remembering what it was
like when she started kindergarten. She was probably
remembering how she had been scared, too.

Opening the Door
Judy looked at me and said, “Henry, you’ll be fine, I
promise. Just be yourself. You’ll do everything just right.
And you’ll make lots of friends, too.” Then she gave me
a hug and said, “You’re a big kid now, Henry. You can
do it!”
Judy opened the tall wooden door and pointed the way in.
As I stood in the doorway. I felt her hand on my back.
“Judy has already done this,” I thought to myself. “And
she loves school”.
I stepped into the classroom. A room full of new faces
turned to me. No one looked mean. I felt much better. I
was ready for school.

for headings that give you clues to how the article is
organized.
