A Flag for Noor's Tent

When several green tents look alike, Noor helps make a bright flag so she and her dad can spot their tent.

Play the quiz as a game

Noor and her dad set up their green tent at a campground beside a lake. Tall pine trees grew along the shore. It was a warm, breezy afternoon.

After lunch, they took a short walk. When they came back, Noor saw a row of green tents. She looked puzzled. "Which tent is ours, Dad? They look so much alike!"

Dad pointed to their tent beside a picnic table. Noor had an idea. "We can give our tent a flag!" she said. Dad found a yellow cloth in their bag.

Together, they tied the cloth to their tent pole. The yellow flag fluttered in the breeze. Noor walked a few steps away with Dad. Now she could pick out their tent right away.

Noor felt proud. That evening, she drew their tent in her camp notebook. She wrote the heading "Lake Camp" at the top. Under her drawing, she added the caption "Our yellow flag." "Now our tent is easy to find," she told Dad.
