An inside look into our education system
There comes a time where, for every teacher who leaves the classroom, they realize they have grown out of touch. I am one of those out-of-the classroom teachers who always tries to keep a trepid foot inside, teaching the orientation class, subbing occasionally, doing demo lessons for new teachers, and conducting fun workshops on digital… Continue reading The Death of Graded Readers?

Ben is moving into an apartment. Ben and the landlady check all of the rooms in the apartment. The landlady writes down the damaged things. I like how Ben carefully checks the apartment and reports damages.

Before Ben moves to a new apartment, he and the landlady check that everything is okay. They find only small damages. She makes a report about this. Ben looks like he is great with the apartment, and he gets a copy of the report.
In the first part, I think the man does not enjoy his work, because he checks the time all day. The second part is a little different from the first part. Dan works a little more, but still checks the time a lot and looks bored.
In the book, Taking the Extra Step, Dan is at his work in the store and it is very quiet. While he was waiting, he checked the time a lot. In part 2, he sees a pot that was broken and changed the plant inside. He was a plant that was dry and he waters… Continue reading Taking the Extra Step Review
