Mike's Kite written by Kaylynn D. Johnson

Reading Warm Up. New Sight Words: fly, may, think, & clean.

"Mom, when I find my kite, may I go fly my kite?" asks Mike.

"I think you better clean up all of your piles Mike," says Mom. "Oh Mom, I do not want to clean up all of my piles," cries Mike.

"Mike, I think I see white mice in this pile," Mom cries. "I think I better clean up this pile," says Mike.

"Mike, I think I see slime in this pile," Mom cries. "I think I better clean up this pile," says Mike.

"Mike, I think I see rice in this pile," Mom cries. "I think I better clean up this pile," says Mike.

"Mike, I think I see a ripe lime in this pile," Mom cries. "I think I better clean up this pile," says Mike.

"Look! I think I see my kite in that last pile! I think I will clean up that pile." cries Mike.

"Mom, may I fly my kite now?" asks Mike. "Yes! You may fly your kite Mike!" cries Mom.
