The New Student

Maria moved to a new country and started at a new school. She was very nervous because she didn’t know anyone and spoke little English. On her first day, she felt scared and alone. During lunch, she sat by herself.

John, a friendly classmate, noticed Maria and decided to help. He went over, introduced himself, and asked if he could sit with her. Maria smiled and nodded. John showed her around the school and helped her with her English. He introduced her to other students, and soon, Maria started to feel more comfortable.

With John’s help, Maria made new friends and began to enjoy school. She was grateful for John’s kindness and felt happy in her new home.
