The situation
At the park, there was a pond with ducks. Ivy wanted to get right up close to the edge to see them, leaning over the water. But the edge was slippery, and the water was deep. She knew that ponds, lakes, and rivers are not safe to go near on your own — you could slip and fall in. (Feeling words: Careful)
