E-day lesson 3
Tolliver grade 7th and 8th

Directions:
Students our lesson for the day is to read and retype the story using the correct form of their, there and they’re. The story should be size 12 and don’t change the font.
Once upon a time, their were three pigs. They’re was Aaron. He was the oldest. Their was Evan. He was the smartest. And they’re was Elizabeth. She was the favorite pig. Their mother loved Elizabeth the best. Aaron , Evan and Elizabeth lived with their mother in a high–rise apartment building in New York City. There apartment was on the 75th floor. The pigs didn’t mind this because they’er was an elevator that opened right in front of their apartment door. It was on the days that there elevator wasn’t working, that the pigs suffered. There mother would have little hoof baths waiting for her three little pigs when they finally reached the top. Of course, Elizabeth always got the warmest hoof bath because she was they’re mother’s favorite.
One day, Momma Pig sent the three little pigs to the store to buy apples for there dinner. She gave them a list of items that she needed. She also gave them they’re allowance, and she told them they could buy there favorite candy which they would eat for they’re dessert. The three pigs put on their jackets (it was winter). They put on there gloves and scarves. Next, it was time to put on their boots. Aaron slipped on his bright red leather boots over his red and yellow polka dot socks. Evan being the most intelligent slipped on his waterproof, fully lined boots over his socks. Aaron and Evan were ready and waiting for there sister. She could not find her boots.
“Aaron and Evan,”she said, have you seen my boots?” Aaron and Evan looked at each other and then they looked at there sister.
“I’ll tell you where they are,” said Evan, “if you give us your allowance to hold while you go and get them.”
“Okay,” agreed Elizabeth as she handed the boys her allowance. “They ‘re are your boots over their, “said Aaron.
“Where?” asked Elizabethsuspiciously?
“Over their!” squealed the boys as they pointed to the window in there living room. “There over they’re behind the curtin.”
Elizabeth slowly walked toward the window. The boys followed closely behind there sister. Just as she reached the window, Aaron opened the window and Evan pushed Elizabeth through. Aaron and Evan squealed with delight as they’re sister fell 75 floors. Aaron and Evan were thrilled that there plan had worked. They were rid of Elizabeth and they had her money! Luckily for Elizabeth, she landed on a huge snow pile and was not hurt,her brothers were not so fortunate.
Mama Pig heard the commotion, ran into the living room and, when she realized what they had done, sent the boys to live there Uncle Oscar Mayer in Eaton, Ohio. Uncle Meyer always knew what to do with the bad little pigs. The boys protested. They were just doing Elizabeth a favor by helping her find her boots; it wasn’t they’re fault that she was clumsy. But Mama would not listen to there excuses and they went to live in Eaton anyway.
Elizabeth and Mama Pig still live on the 75th floor of the apartment building in New York City, and their very happy their. Now Elizabeth gets her brothers’ allowance since there not they’re.
