3. One day, a group of friends went to the beach and they brought
all their sand toys. When they got there they decided to make a sand
castle, so they got out their shovels and pails. When they started to
build the castle, they realized the sand was too dry and they got
really sad. Then, one friend got an idea! He told his friends they
should get some water from the ocean for the sand was too dry.
They thought that was a great idea and they ran toward the ocean
with their pails. They did not know if they should get one pail or two
pails full, but they decided it was better to be safe than sorry, so they
got two. They filled their pails with water yet it was not enough. Then
run again towards the ocean. Alas! The water worked perfectly and
they were able to make giant sand castle!
