Big Thank you to Thaniels’ mum for reading us Si Pagong ba at si Matsing

in her Native language: TAGALOG.

We all had a lot of fun and learnt lots of new words!

This is a story about two friends who find a banana tree floating in the river.

They both wanted to plant it so they cut the tree in

half. The monkey chose the half with the leaves and

branches. The turtle chose the half that had the roots.

Who will have a banana tree in the end? Is it the

turtle or the monkey?

Ang kwentong ito ay tungkol sa magkaibigang nakakita ng puno ng

saging na lumulutang sa ilog.Pareho nilang gusto itong itanim kaya pinutol

nila ang puno sa gitna. Pinili ni Matsing angkalahating may dahon at

sanga. Pinili ni Pagong ang kalahating may ugat ng puno.

Sino kaya ang magkakaroon ng puno ng saging sa huli?

Si Pagong ba o si Matsing?
