Step 4: With the sentences above, write the story of each picture, use the simple
past and the past progressive and the connectors.

Story Picture A (todos hacen una historia):

A while ago, on a cold winter day, three children were enjoying the snow on sleds
at the top of a hill. While they were at the top, a lady was watching from afar,
smiling as she saw how the children were having fun.

However, at one point, the lady slipped on the ice, and one of the children
immediately noticed. She yelled to the other two children to watch what was
happening. The lady was falling, and the boy who saw her helped her while the
other two ran towards her.

While one of the children was helping the lady to stand up, the other two children
were using the second sled to carry the lady's things. The woman thanked them
with a big smile for their kindness. Meanwhile, the other children continued loading
the sleigh with their belongings.

After helping the lady, the two children pulled the rope, taking her to her house on
the sleigh. The third child was in charge of carrying the lady's bag on the sleigh to
her house. It was a moving act of solidarity.

Story Picture B (todos hacen una historia):

While the bear scratched his head, wondering where the rabbit was in the race, the
other animals cheered when the turtle crossed the finish line first. The turtle raised
his arms in celebration and the bear's confusion deepened.
Meanwhile, the four ninja turtles were tying the rabbit to a tree. The rabbit had
been overconfident and had underestimated the speed and teamwork of the ninja
turtles. As the bear continued to ponder the whereabouts of the rabbit, he suddenly
noticed the commotion near the trees.

As the bear approached, he saw the rabbit tied up and the ninja turtles standing
guard. The rabbit looked embarrassed and defeated, while the ninja turtles looked
proud of their victory. The bear couldn't help but shake his head at the turn of
events, and the other animals continued to cheer for the triumphant turtle.
