Week of 23 July 2012 - Vocabulary and Writing (Mike's PM1 class)

Good afternoon, everyone.

We will read various stories this week and learn new vocabulary from the stories.  We will write some sentences using the new vocabulary and write a paragraph on one or two of the stories.  Enjoy!


Below are two ways to think about stories, both long and short. They should also help you when you write about a story.
