Speaking exercise

We made a thing that looked like a rabbit.

I folded the paper then glued it. Then I cut a circle out of the paper with scissors.

A zebra accidentally bumped into a tree. His stripes changed. He felt very strange. He wanted his stripes to be normal again, so he ran towards the tree, but the stripes turned totally opposite.

He was panic and started to run away. He was tripped by a tree, and his stripes became various shapes and patterns.

His friends saw this and started to cheer for him. He felt very confident and performed this trick for his friends.
