1On Monday, Hugo got to be principal for a day. He wore a blue bow tie and a shiny name tag. Ms. Tran, the real principal, let him sit in her spinning chair.

2First, Hugo read the morning news to the whole school. His voice shook a little. Next, he visited the kindergarten room and gave out gold stars.

3After lunch, Hugo rang the bell for recess. Kids cheered and raced outside. Then he walked the quiet halls and found a lost green mitten.

4At the end of the day, Hugo gave back the name tag. "Being principal is hard work," he said with a tired smile. "But it was the best day ever!"
