Miss Pringle’s Home Olympic Challenge Here is Miss Pringle’s challenge for today:
Spelling Ask a family member to dictate the following passage to you, writing it into your handwriting book. Remember to think about correct punctuation, as well as spelling.

This is an incredible story about a zebra and a mouse. Late one night, a horrible zebra crept along a reversible corridor after making a forcible entry into the building. One minute, he was walking in one direction; the next, it was possible that he was unknowingly going back the way he had come. Luckily, a sensible mouse had witnessed the break-in and hid around the corner so he wouldn’t be visible to the zebra. He decided to act in a responsible manner and record the zebra’s terrible crime in his notebook, ensuring that his handwriting was legible. “This despicable brute won’t get away with this!” he whispered to himself. The end.
