| to get frightened | |
| to cry | , |
| concerned | , |
| to look forward | - |
| a solemn look | |
| an outfit | , |
| a paper cone | |
| threatening | |

| a pencil case | |
| to feel embarrassed | |
| a detention | ( ) |
| a whiteboard | |
| a no talking room | , |
| a chilly day | |
| to expect something | - |
| away from home | |
| to enter the classroom | |
| to get scared | |
| as fast as I can | , |
| behind me | |
| most of the day | |
| to seem concerned | |
| to be nervous | |
| anxiously | |
| tasty things | |

| without a doubt | |
| an eraser | , |
