The end of the year is near.
The children of group three, have to show all things they learned this year, they must also understand them. Therefore they receive a real test from teacher John.
They are not allowed to make too many mistakes, otherwise they won't go to group four next year,
Against what she'd like, Nikki has to study in her room. Outside the weather is really great.
Daddy put the inflatable pool in the garden, and filled it with water. From her open window Nikki can hear her brother splashing and laughing.
Poor Nikki fancies to play as well. But first she has to make sums, in preparation for the test. The sums are extremely difficult, and Nikki has to work very hard. It slugs on and on.
When she is finally ready, it's bedtime.
'I think, it is very good, that you've worked so hard,' Mum says when she looks at the sums.
'I'm sure your hard work will bring results. Wait and see.'
The next day mother collects the children from school. As soon as she sees Nikki, she asks how the test went.
Sighing Nikki puts her backpack on the ground, and opens it.
She takes a sheet of paper out. It is the test.
At the top is written in red : 'all ten right! Bravo!' Under this is a stamp with a smiling face.
This makes Mum so proud.
'Do you see now that your work gets rewarded?,' Mum smiles. 'We have to celebrate. Come, we will get an ice cream, because deserve that so much.'
That's for sure.
