Dictation week 10


A Climbing Lamb
There was a lamb that wanted to climb to the top of a ladder. On the way up the ladder, the lamb’s limbs became numb and this made it difficult to climb. Following this, the lamb’s thumb also became numb. This made it even more difficult for the lamb to climb to the top. The poor lamb began to doubt that he could climb the whole way. Luckily, the numb feeling disappeared and the determined lamb climbed the whole way.
