3、 chance to help you in the kitchen and make something delicious.Just make sure the cooking is cleaning up. Write a story together.Let the kids come up with a story of their own. They might want to write stories individually and then read them aloud to others. Or, they might want to get together and
4、write a story together. Play “lets pretend“ games. Let the kids pretend to be teachers, doctors, nurses or policemen. Let them dress up in whatever you may have. Then let them play the roles.

5、d dance around the room. Then, let them enjoy themselves with laughter, when you show them how it was done when you were a kid. Use these ideas to get you started, and the kids may actually start wishing for more rainy days. ( 21) From the passage we learn _. A. what we can do to make rainy days int

7、.

Poaching has worried environmentalists for years and, despite laws, this terribl
8、e crime has yet to be stopped. Poaching is a serious problem, especially in Africa and Asia. This crime is done for mercial profit (商业利益 ), meaning hunters kill animals illegally and sell their most worthy parts.

12、erve parks in Africa should bee a huge zoo so that the 版权所有 :中国好课堂 animals can move but within a fenced area. Another idea is to build a concrete enclosure instead of fences.
