It’s November, and Marta is very happy because it’s her birthday month. She talked with her parents and decided to have a party at home. She is inviting all her classmates and hopes everyone will come. She can’t wait to tell her class.

Marta enters the classroom, smiling. She hands out invitations for her party on Saturday. Everyone is excited! But when Nina’s turn comes, she looks worried. Her arm is in a cast, and she needs to keep it still. She says she’ll ask her parents and let Marta know soon.

Is it a good idea for Nina to go to the party?

At break, the kids talk about Nina. Marta feels sad her friend might not come. They share ideas, and Marta suggests a party without games so Nina can join easily.

Will the children have fun at a party without games?

Marta tells her parents, and they suggest a movie instead of games. She agrees because she wants Nina there, even if it’s not her dream party. At school, she shares her idea, but some kids say they won’t come without games. Now, Marta feels unsure.

What do you think Marta will do?

Tell Nina they’ll watch a film so she can come. Let Nina decide if she wants to come. During the party they will play games.
