Once upon a time, there was a girl named Ella. Ella was going into 6th grade and was worried about what was to come. 

She often found herself laying awake at night worrying about if she would make friends and if she would be smart enough for school.

On August 22nd, Ella woke up and realized it was the first day of school. She was overwhelmed with worry that something would go wrong on the first day. Despite her feelings, she got up and got ready for school. 

When she got to school, she was restless and tense. She hadn´t got much sleep the night before, and she found it hard to focus. 

Ellas teacher, Mrs. Elliot noticed that she was nervous and pulled her aside to talk. Ella finally got to talk about her feelings and Mrs. Elliot assured her that everything would be okay. 

This made Ella feel much safer, and she was glad she got to get things off of her chest. Ella even found a few friends at school that made her forget about her worries. 

When she got home from school and got in bed, she was excited to go to school the next day. A lot of weight was lifted of her shoulders and she got a good nights rest.
