Teacher: Hey there! So, today we're going to talk about the word "serpent." Have you heard of this word before? Well, if not, no worries! I'm here to help you understand it.

Imagine a really long creature, you know, like a snake? That's what we're talking about when we say "serpent."

A serpent is a reptile with a long, slender body and no legs. It belongs to the same family as snakes, which I'm sure you're familiar with. Just like a snake, a serpent slithers across the ground without any feet, using its muscular body to move. It has scaly skin that feels quite different from ours, and it may have different patterns or colors on its body.

Now, "serpent" can also mean something else. You know how sometimes people describe something, like a river or a road, as winding or twisting? Well, in those cases, they might use the word "serpent" to describe that object. It's like a way of saying that the object has a shape or a path that resembles the movements of a snake or serpent.

So, to sum it up, "serpent" means a long, legless reptile that slithers on the ground. It can also be used to describe something that has a twisting or winding shape. Now, does that make sense to you? Is there anything else I can do to help you understand it better?
