Spring Break Photo Diary

Don’t forget your “homework” (because it is too fun to be homework) over the break!

Take 8 photos of what you are doing on Spring Break and explain what is happening in the picture in two complete English sentences.

If you left early (before Friday), you have a different version of this assignment, so please do the one that I gave you before you left.

 

See everyone in a few weeks!

First, we will be working on our comparison paragraphs.  Practice organizing your three points first BEFORE you write your paragraph.

Afterwards, we may be using our vocabulary in some sort of game…

 

Have a fantastic and safe Spring Break!  Don’t forget to keep your Photo Diaries!  =)
