Was he dead or not?



This week's story was Buried Alive, a story about a boy who died and was buried.  Except he wasn't really dead! I think it's a very creepy story.  To find out what creepy means and to practice the other vocabulary from the story click here and go to Buried Alive.

Don't Get Caught Lying!

This week we read Love or Baseball? about a guy who lied to his girlfriend so he could watch a baseball game.  Too bad for him, he got caught!  We have a saying in English:

Honesty is the Best Policy
Do you agree?

Here's the link to practice the vocabulary from the story  :https://www.spellingcity.com/deniselleck@sbcglobal.net/  Click on "Love or Baseball."

Have fun and don't lie!
