Reading Practice: A1 Level – The Spring
Welcome to this fun and refreshing reading activity!
📜 Story: The Spring
In spring, flowers bloom, and birds sing. The sun shines brightly, bringing warmth to the world.
The days grow longer, and we can spend more time outside. Trees wake up from their winter sleep and grow new, green leaves.
Everywhere, the grass turns fresh and green, and gardens are full of colorful flowers like tulips and daisies.
Birds chirp and build nests in the trees. Their songs make the mornings feel alive and cheerful.
People enjoy going for walks in parks, having picnics, and flying kites in the gentle spring breeze.
The weather is perfect—not too hot and not too cold. Sometimes, a light rain falls, helping the flowers and plants grow.
Spring is a time of joy and renewal after the cold and quiet of winter ❄️. It’s when nature comes back to life, and everything feels new and full of hope.
We see butterflies fluttering from flower to flower and bees buzzing as they collect nectar.
Spring brings smiles, laughter, and a feeling of happiness to everyone. It is truly a season of growth and celebration!
