3. Motive Question: What are you afraid of? Why? What were the mice afraid of? What did they plan to do?

4. Belling the Cat A long time ago, there were three mice that lived in a big house. They had an enemy- Pat the Cat. Now, Pat the Cat was a watchful cat. She watched the house so closely that the three mice could hardly go out from their small hole. They could not look for tasty food to eat.

5. So First Mouse called for a meeting to solve the problem. “We need to fool Pat the Cat,” said First Mouse. “Yes, or we will be so hungry, we will die,” agreed Second Mouse. “What should we do to fool Pat?” The mice were silent for a while, thinking. Suddenly, Third Mouse shouted, “Oh, I know how!”

6. “We can put a bell on Pat‟s collar. When Pat walks, the bell will ring. We will know where she is,” answered Third Mouse. “Then, we know when to hide and when to go out.” “But who will bell the cat?” asked Second Mouse. “Not I!” said First Mouse. “If not you, then who?” asked Third Mouse, looking at Second Mouse.

7. “Uh-uh, not I!” said Second Mouse. “If not you, then who?” asked Third Mouse. “You!” chorused First Mouse and Second Mouse. “Not I!” answered Third Mouse. So the three mice had a brilliant idea to solve the problem, but not one of them could do it.

8. Answer the questions: Who wanted to pull the bell on Pat’s collar? *Third mouse, So they would know where the Pat cat was. 2. Why do you think no one wanted to bell the cat? *Pat would surely catch the mouse who goes near her.

9. 3. What was wrong with the plan? *It looked like a good plan but it could not be done. 4. What makes a plan to solve a problem a good plan? *When someone can do it. 5. What should we do when we plan to solve a problem? *We make sure that it can be done.
