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.

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!

Remember to get your books as soon as possible in order to start working on the topics and class activities;  you can get copies for the first week.

Once this week has passed, you won’t be able to bring copies into our class and will not be given an attendance.
