School Life Reflection Activity Unit

 

• Write an overview for the Unit School Life: In this unit we learned how to write about the things we do in school such as Chinese class, Library, classroom, P.E. Class, Go to another class, student, and also the days of the week. This unit was difficult because the words had 2 parts to them and it was not easy remembering the 2 part words. The parts that were easy, were the days of the week because they had numbers in them which helped me remember the words more easily.
