Teacher: Children, I had a strange dream last night. I saw that I got ready and left the house to
come to school. However, there were no means of transport to help me reach school. I felt so
helpless. I just kept walking and walking. That is when I woke up. Thank god it was just a dream.
The teacher then asks the following questions:
 Can you imagine a life without any means of transport?
