This week we’re working with the past tenses and literature. Remember our story about The Little Red Riding Hood? Well, today, you’re going to re-create your own story about a Frankenmonster!!! Just continue the story presented here:

“Once upon a time, there was a scientist who wanted to create a robot that could help people learn other languages in an easier way, so he input all the languages in the world into its database and gave it the abilities of speaking, reading, writing and listening. Everything was perfect until one night a lightening stroke the lab where he was working and made the robot become alive. Unfortunatelly, the robot hadn’t been programmed to assist and help the people yet, so, feeling scared, it wandered out the lab trying to communicate with everyone it found in its way. When the people saw it…” 

Post your continuation of the story in this blog. Try to write at least a 10 lines paragraph; pay special attention to your spelling and punctuation. Enjoy!
