Reading Practice: A Nature Walk by the Lake

Reading Text

On Sunday, Omar joined a nature walk beside Green Lake. The guide, Mrs. Bell, gave everyone a small card with pictures of leaves. She asked the group to walk quietly and stay on the marked path. Omar brought a pencil and a bottle of water in his backpack.

They stopped near a row of tall trees. Mrs. Bell showed them how to compare leaf shapes without picking the leaves. Omar found a wide, round leaf on the ground and matched it to the picture of an oak leaf. At the water’s edge, the group watched two ducks swim between the reeds.

Before they returned, each person named one thing they had noticed. Omar talked about the ducks and the tiny rings made by raindrops on the lake. Mrs. Bell explained that careful observation helps people learn about nature while leaving plants and animals undisturbed. Omar put his card in his notebook. He wanted to bring his cousin on the next walk.
