1i01font00I assume your students are pretty young and have gone through similar experiences. So you probably want your students to identify with Jenny. Her first day in school can be very exciting but she may also feel lonely and sad. She may run into problems as well. Does she adjust well in school? Do her classmates treat her nicely? How will she make friend
