More advanced work with prepositions and dialogue writing
2 Novembro 2020, 12:30 • Cecília Maria Beecher Martins
We read the summary of Roald Dahl's short story "The Way up to Heaven", paying particular attention to the use of the prepositions: (by, with, of, for, to, across and into) as they occur in the text.
Working together students then produced different sentences where they used these prepositions appropriately. There was a lively discussion of regular use and possible uses in exceptional cases, but emphasis was placed on regular usage.
Then, while in the breakout rooms, students wrote a dialogue between 2 of the characters in the story. They then read their texts in class.
Students must complete Task 4 on page 40 for the next class.
