It took us a year to learn how to do this, but here it is (class translation of "The North Wind and the Sun"):

The North Wind and the Sun were arguing about who was stronger.  They saw a man wearing a cloak. 

The Sun said, “Why are we arguing back and forth with nothing to show for it?  You see that man; whoever can get that coat off of him wins.”  

The North Wind agreed on the bet and he was the first to try.  He blew and blew with all his might, but the more the North Wind blew the tighter the man pulled the cloak.  And when the North Wind took a rest, the Sun came out, and it got hotter and hotter.  The man became so hot he tore off his cloak.
