Set A L4-B9 The Swan Family
Mother Swan made a nest down by the water.
Father Swan got some sticks and grass for her.
The nest got bigger and bigger and bigger.
Mother Swan sat down on her very big nest to lay her eggs.
Father Swan went down to the river.
But he did not swim away.
Mother Swan sat on her six white eggs for weeks.
Then six baby swans came out of the eggs.
They all stayed in the nest with Mother Swan for two days.
Then Father Swan saw a big boy coming.
The boy walked up to the nest.
Father Swan ran to help Mother Swan and the six babies.
Father Swan looked very big with his wings out.
He ran at the boy.
The boy ran away from the swans’ nest.
He ran very fast.
Then Mother Swan and Father Swan and the six little babies walked down to the river.
They all went into the water.
And the babies climbed up on Mother Swan and Father Swan to have a ride.
