Dear
Arizona,
Sometimes I’ll see or hear or smell
something, and my mind will just start making up stories. The
problem with my daydreaming is that my teacher gets mad at me
for not paying attention. Help!

Distracted,
I do the same exact thing! I also love daydreaming
and using my senses to make the stories in my mind even better.
And like you, I’d get in trouble for not paying attention—that
is, until I made up a rule for myself. Here’s what happened. |
