One day, there were two animals named Kiki and Cici. They are best friends, to the point that Kiki's mother considers Cici as her own child. One day, Kiki's mother invited Kiki and Cici to plant green beans in the field behind their house.“Please, sow some of these sprouts in the pots that are already in our fields!” Their mother told them to plant the green beans in pots in the field. They planted beans with certainty, and when they were done, they returned to their homes. The next day, they returned to the field to see how the green beans they had planted yesterday were progressing. “Hahaha, your green beans don't have any progress to grow!” Cici laughed when she seeing Kiki’s plants because they don't have roots or leaves. Kiki was saddened and disappointed to hear this, and even more so when he saw that his green bean plants were not growing at all. Kiki replanted his green beans with new green beans, fertilized them, and watered them until the soil was moist enough. After a few days of this activity, Kiki's green beans now grew with long roots, and quite a lot of leaves. His mother was proud when she heard his story when he returned from the field.

1. John Jr and Yuēhàn found a book on the Vietnam War and The Civil Rights Movement. 2. Yuēhàn read to John Jr that The Vietnam War was a long conflict in Southeast Asia. It began in 1954, after the country of Vietnam was split into two parts, North Vietnam and South Vietnam. North Vietnam wanted to reunite the country under Communism, its political and economic system. South Vietnam fought to keep this from happening. The United States helped South Vietnam, but North Vietnam won the war in 1975. Soon Vietnam was a united, Communist country. The Vietnam War had a huge cost in human lives. More than 1.3 million Vietnamese soldiers and about 58,000 U.S. troops were killed. 3. Yuēhàn also read In 1954, the Supreme Court ruled unanimously in Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka that racial segregation of children in public schools was unconstitutional. This case was a cornerstone of the Civil Rights Movement. The main aim of the civil rights movement was to give everybody equal rights regardless of color skin color, gender, nationality, religion, disability or age. The aim of the movement which peaked in the 1960's was to ensure that the rights of all people are equally and are protected by the law.
