Read the story once.  \nAmanda had a beautiful voice that she kept to herself. She sang when she woke up, when she brushed her hair and even when she walked to school. Her voice was clear and always on tune. Amanda didn’t sing for anyone else, though. She only sang for herself!  \nAt recess, Amanda hummed while swinging on the swings. Her friend, Mia, ran over and said,“Wow, Amanda! You have such a pretty voice. You should sing for the class!”  \nAmanda shook her head quickly.“No way,” she said. The idea of singing in front of other people made her stomach hurt.  \nAt home, Amanda sang while helping her mom bake cookies. Her little brother clapped his hands and said,“You sound like the singers on the  \nradio!” Amanda just smiled and kept singing softly. She liked her voice, but she didn’t want anyone to make a big deal about it.  \nOne morning, the music teacher, Ms. Harper, overheard Amanda singing quietly.“Amanda,” she said,“your voice is lovely! Would you like to sing at the school concert next month?”  \nAmanda froze.“Oh   I don’t think so,” she said. Ms. Harper smiled kindly and said,“That’s okay, but if you change your mind, let me know.”  \nAmanda thought about it all day. She knew her voice was special, but she didn’t feel ready to share it with a big crowd. That night, as she sang herself to sleep, she decided it was enough to just enjoy singing for herself.  \nAmanda had a beautiful voice, and that was something she didn’t need to prove to anyone else.  \n2. Read the story a second time. This time, underline the main idea and circle the supporting details.  \n3. Then answer the following questions:  \nWhat is the story’s main idea?  \na.
