While - reading

The text

I have a red bicycle. I pedal and I ride. Trin... trin... trin... goes the bell. Makes my friends move aside.

PALLAVI

The seat is blue in colour,

The tyres and pedals are black.

Sometimes fast, sometimes slow,

But my bicycle is always on track.

To keep my bicycle moving,

All I need is some air.

I put on my little helmet,

And go happily everywhere.

Note to the teacher
