Opener Problem

Look at the situation below.

Fouad is in the garden looking for insects. His dad tells him that the
insects are all under the big rock, keeping cool. Fouad tries to lift the
rock, but it is too heavy. His dad gives him a long metal pole and

says that it will help him. Fouad finds that the pole makes his hands
feel cold, but he does not understand how the pole will help him.

Explain what is happening.

Is Fouad’s dad being helpful?
