Sometimes we don't realize it, but humans are always telling stories. Sometimes these stories are fables from long ago. Often, they are simple events we relate to our friends. This week, we talked about storytelling. To do this, we practiced how to use simple past verbs vs. past continuous verbs. We also talked a little about how to use stative verbs. If you are not sure about what stative verbs are, CLICK HERE for a list and a description to help you.
For your homework this week, choose one of the videos below. Each video is a Canadian story, but these stories don't have many words. Please write at least 100 words to tell one of the stories. You may read your classmates' work, but don't copy them! Instead, try to improve upon what they did. Also, don't forget to do your WORKBOOK: pages 48 and 49C.
Here are the stories you can choose from:
1. The Story of the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Mascots
2. "Neighbours" by Norman McLaren
3. "The Big Snit" by Richard Conde
Have fun with these stories! See you in class.

There are three Mascots of the Vancouver 2010 Olympic.They are Sumi, Quatchi and Miga. As I know Quatchi is the Sasquatch, Miga is the Sea Bear, and Sumi is the Thunderbird. Miga is lives in the ocean with her family. And the Quatchi a shy and gentle Sasquatch with a long brown beard and blue earmuffs. In my opinion the Sumi stand for the surf-riding and the snow board and so on. And the Quatchi is stand for the ice hockey. Sumi play the ski and he can fly. I think that the three Mascots with the Winter Olympic is the meaning of the Olympic spirit. It's the fair play.
