Another idea..

Welcome back to school, everyone. For those of you who are keeping track, this is my fourth attempt to improve communications between parents and teachers in the last four years. So far, every piece of technology that I have tried has failed, either because it was far too time consuming to use or because it was too unstable. This forum should work well--I have experienced no difficulty in using it so far, and the concept is simple: navigate to this blog and look at the week's assignments. Each week I will also post the topics of the lessons that we'll be working on. I will post the next week's assignments as a new post every Friday. If you have questions or comments, feel free to use the comment function withing the blog.

Miracle On 49th street

Molly Parker used to live in London. Now she lives in Boston with her mom. Every one in Boston wanted to meet Josh Cameron who was a famous basketball player for the celtics. One day, Molly's mom dies of cancer. The doctors had told her too late. One day, molly cuts class to go to see Josh cameron. Josh wanted to leave, but Molly convinced him to stay. Molly eventually tells Josh that he is actually her dad. Josh believes her because Molly told him the story about when he lost the final four and Molly's mom bought him a jacket with the rest of her money. But after the story, Josh doesn't believe her anymore. Then Molly brings a letter out of her back pocket. He still says he doesn't belive it. Josh acted like she was just hear to tell a joke
