2. Vi, Mo, and Me “No! I will not go!” I said. “It will not be fun. It will be silly.” “Mo will come,” Mom said. “Mo likes a picnic in the grass. He will ask Vi.” “Will Vi and Mo go now?” I asked. “I want to see them.” I saw Vi and Mo and the sunny sky. I yelled at them. They yelled, “Hi!” I asked my mom, “Can I race with Vi and Mo?” She said, “Yes, but be safe.” Mo, Vi, and I ran a lot. Mom did not pass us by! By the time the sun went down, it was time to go. We felt happy. Parent signature: Monday________________ Tuesday________________ Wednesday_____________ Thursday_______________ High Frequency Words skill: vowel sounds of y Meet my silly rabbit.
