Teacher's Model for Blended Learners

While I was young, I lived upon my mother’s milk, as I could not eat grass. In the daytime, I ran by her side, and at night I lay down close by her. When it was hot, we used to stand by the pond in the shade of the trees, and when it was cold, we had a nice warm shed near the grove.

 

How do you think the foal felt about its life with his mother?

 

Option 1

The foal felt happy with his life. I can tell this because it uses positive language such as 'nice warm shed'. This gives the impression he is happy.

 

Option 2

He felt scared of the outside world and secure by his mothers side. I can tell this because it says 'by her side', 'close by her' and 'we used to'. This gives us the impression that the foal was always by its mothers side.
