Activity (a)Look at the picture and read the story. Write some words to complete the sentences about the story.
You can use one, two, three or four words. There is one example.

It was a cold winter day. Helen, Richard, David, Betty and William dressed up in their warm clothes andwent outside to play in the snow. Betty and William were soon busy making a snowman.
They used a carrot for his nose and they gave him a hat and a striped scarf. They decided to calltheir snowman Mr Nothing because they knew that when the weather got warmer their fine snowman
would turn to nothing! Helen, Richard and David said they would also make a snowman. Richard andDavid began to make a big snowball for their snowman’s body. Helen’s snowball was going to be thesnowman’s head but before it was big enough, she thought it would be fun to throw the snowball at
David. The snowball hit his hat. So David and Richard threw their snowball at Betty.
Perhaps you can guess what happened next. Everyone started to throw snowballs at each otherand Helen, Richard and David never did make their snowman. So they, also, had Mr Nothing!
