If

 


Please send me more pictures!  I particularly want pictures of the food at the party and of Giovanna's gorgeous cakes! I really enjoyed my plate of food after the party.

If you do Duolingo, please read aloud a LOT.  If you try Voscreen, tell me if it costs you money and if you like it.  

The people who created our Color Vowel chart also have pronunciation classes and an app called Blue Canoe.  I think Blue Canoe is probably difficult and expensive, but I'm curious about it.  To get the app or enroll in the online pronunciation classes click here.

Please do not spend a lot of time as you randomly watch videos of ALL THE GRAMMER.  Be strong in  adjective and easier verb tenses:  present, present continuous, future, and past.

Do you remember looking at a rainbow?  Where were you?

Shopping Around



Game to practice comparative

Here are some links with some grocery sales.  Most show the sale prices this week, but Walmart is easy to search by product. (Thing you want to buy).  Comparing is easier if you pick something on sale at another store then search for the same thing on the Walmart page.
