Story Details

Panda walks into the small classroom where only Mimi is waiting. Panda smiles and waves.

“Hello Mimi! Today we will learn two words: CLEAN and DIRTY,” Panda says.

Panda puts two cups on the desk: one shiny clean cup and one dirty, dusty cup.

Panda lifts the clean cup. “This is CLEAN,” he says slowly.

Then Panda points to the dirty cup. “And this is DIRTY.”

Mimi tries to guess: she points to the clean cup and says “Clean?”, then to the dirty cup and says “Dirty?”

Panda nods and begins wiping the dirty cup. “Let’s make it clean!”

Panda shows the cup again. “Look Mimi! Now it is CLEAN!”

Panda says: “Clean hands, clean desk… clean everything!” Mimi lifts her hands and smiles.

Mimi says, “Thank you, Panda!” Panda smiles: “You learned so well today!”
