I turned seven after we got here and here children were starting at the age of five in kindergarten, so at age seven they put me
in the first grade, which was kind of dumb because I didn't know the language and, I didn't know "yes" and "no." That's how bad it was. I just sat there and every time the teacher even looked at me I would start to cry because I was afraid she was going to say something and I didn't know what, what she was saying. What is one central idea of the sentences?
It is okay to be yourself.
It can be difficult to be different.
Some people do dumb things.
Anyone can do well in first grade.
