Lesson 118 (ch /sh/, ch /k/, gn /n/, gh /g/, Silent t)

"Max, the cat, listened to the bustle of the farm."

"Max jumped down, ready to explore the glistening morning dew."

"He saw a gnat, dancing around a thistle."

"Max watched the gnat and decided to practice his pounce."

"He leaped with all his might, but the gnat flew away."

"A bit disappointed, Max decided to fasten his attention on something else."

"He noticed a rustle in the bushes and went to investigate."

"Out jumped a forest gnome, making Max jump back in surprise."

"Max watched the gnome disappear into a chute leading underground."

"Deciding it was enough adventure for one day, Max hastened back to his cozy spot on the fence."

"He curled up, ready to doze among the echoes of the busy farm."

"The day ended with the farm's choir of animals serenading Max to sleep."
