Once upon a time there were three sisters. The first sister was very tall and strong. Her name was Corn Girl. She wore a pale green dress and had long yellow hair that blew in the wind. Corn Girl liked to stand straight and tall, but the hot sun burned her feet and hurt her. The longer she stood in her field, the hungrier she got. Weeds were growing around her and choking her. The second sister, Bean Girl, was thin and quick. But Bean Girl was not very strong. She couldn’t stand up. She was good at making food, but she was always dirty and wet because she had to lie on the ground. The third sister, Squash Girl, was short and wide. She wore a yellow dress. She was hungry, too. For a long time, the sisters didn’t get along. They each wanted to be independent and free. So Corn Girl stood there with her sunburned feet and got hungrier and hungrier. And Bean Girl lay there on the ground and got dirtier and wetter. And the little short sister, Squash Girl, was hungry, too. One day Bean Girl asked Corn Girl, “What if I feed you some good food, and you can hold me up so I don’t have to lie on the ground?” Then little Squash Girl called up to her tall sister, “What if I lie on your feet and shade them so you won’t get sunburned?” So the Three Sisters learned to work together, so that everyone would be healthier and happier. Corn Girl helped Bean Girl stand up. Bean Girl fed Corn Girl and Squash Girl good food. And Squash Girl shaded Corn Girl’s feet and kept the weeds from growing up around them.

Title: The Hidden Treasure of the Vineyard Once upon a time, in a peaceful village surrounded by rolling hills and lush greenery, there was a beautiful vineyard. In this vineyard lived an elderly father and his son, Leo. The father loved the vineyard dearly and worked hard every day to care for it. But Leo, on the other hand, was quite lazy and preferred to spend his days lounging under the shade of the trees. One sunny afternoon, the father fell ill. He knew he didn’t have much time left, so he called Leo to his bedside. “My dear son,” he said with a gentle smile, “I have hidden a great treasure in our vineyard. Promise me you won’t sell the land. Instead, dig and till every inch of the soil.” Leo’s eyes widened with excitement at the thought of treasure. He promised his father that he would do as he asked. Soon after, the father passed away, leaving Leo alone with the vineyard and the secret of the hidden treasure. Determined to find the treasure, Leo picked up a shovel and began to dig. Day after day, he worked tirelessly, turning over the soil and caring for the vines. He dug deep and wide, but no matter how hard he searched, he couldn’t find even a single coin. As the seasons changed, something magical happened. The vineyard, which had been quiet and still, began to come alive. The vines grew strong and healthy, bursting with juicy grapes. Leo was amazed at the transformation. When harvest time came, Leo gathered the grapes and took them to the market. To his surprise, people loved the grapes and paid him well for them. As he counted his earnings, Leo realized something important. The treasure his father spoke of wasn’t gold or jewels—it was the fruit of his hard work and dedication. From that day on, Leo understood the true value of diligence and effort. He continued to care for the vineyard, knowing that the real treasure lay in the joy of seeing his labor bear fruit. And so, the vineyard thrived, and Leo learned that sometimes, the greatest treasures are not

When a mysterious golden key appears on Mr. C’s desk, Rose, Adrian M., and Aaliyah are the only ones who see it shimmer. The key hums with energy, and when they touch it together, the classroom transforms into a swirling tunnel of light. They land in Civicara, a magical city where buildings float, roads rearrange themselves, and glowing symbols represent the rules that keep everything running smoothly. Guided by Archivus, a wise owl-like guardian of Civicara, the trio embarks on a quest to restore balance to the city. The Laws of Light that keep streets safe are flickering, the Fountains of Health that provide clean water and care have stopped flowing, and the Flame of Service—which powers the firefighters' and sanitation workers’ abilities—is dimming. Without these forces, the city is falling into chaos. To set things right, Rose, Adrian, and Aaliyah must visit different parts of Civicara: The Hall of Laws, where they learn how fair rules protect everyone and must fix a broken law book. The Healing Gardens, where they help magical doctors and learn about health and safety. The Service Forge, where they work alongside magical sanitation workers, firefighters, and teachers to restore the Flame of Service. Through teamwork, problem-solving, and courage, the three friends bring Civicara back to harmony. When they return to Mr. C’s classroom, they realize their own community is just as important—every worker, rule, and service helps keep their world running. And just maybe, if they listen closely, they can still hear the hum of the golden key, reminding them that they have the power to make a difference.

One evening, Ece felt exhausted from studying but couldn’t fall asleep. Her mind was racing with thoughts of exams and the persistent inner voice telling her to work harder. Unable to calm her mind, she lay awake. Then her brother quietly entered her room. Seeing the dark circles under her eyes, he smiled gently and said, “Ece, let me share a relaxation technique I love.” “Imagine you are camping in a secret forest only you can discover. Visualize yourself slowly walking among the trees, hearing the sounds of nature. Take deep breaths and let your mind wander in this forest.” Ece decided to give it a try. She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and imagined the woods her brother described. Instantly, she found herself under the shadow of lush trees, feeling a relaxed breeze on her face. Birds tweeted, and a babbling brook helped her soul. Walking in this forest, the rustle of leaves and the scent of rain filled her senses. This nightly "camping" became Ece’s favorite ritual. Her mind calmed, and she drifted off to sleep within minutes. Mornings brought her new focus, and soon, she not only managed her exam stress but also found herself more attentive in class. Her confidence grew, and the serene forest became her haven from stress.
