Sunrise, Sunset: Time Passes By

This week we read a story about how families can help each other. Who helped you in your family when you had a problem? Who did you help? Everyone needs a lot of help. Everyone can help other people. Families and friends are so important to us.

This week in our computer class, watch this video from a movie, Fiddler on the Roof. You will see a traditional wedding. You will hear two parents think to themselves, "When did they grow up?" Listen to the past time questions and the past time, present time and future verbs.




After you watch, you can make a comment.
  1. Who did you help this week?
  2. Who helped you?
  3. Did you have a good week, or a bad week?
  4. Did you do anything special?

Next, please click and begin to watch this video story. Probably your parents had a different life than you do. Everthing changes as times goes by.

  2. Today, after school I'm going to see my friend. She asked me to buy some special foods for her. She liked Vietnamese egg rolls very much, and I will bring them to her after school. And tomorrow, I have to go to see a chiroprator for my back, and after that I will see my sister to take her lunch. Then I 'm going to Post Office to send some things to my friend in Los Angeles.

  9. It's so quick of the time.I have learned English for 1 month in fall semester at Civic Center of City College.I absorbed all of the knowledge that my teachers' taught me in English.Especially Venette Cook,an excellent second language of English teacher.She knew everything about new students of immigrates' needs and she always very kind to us.I had a new good week with her to study English. This week,she taught us past tense of English.It was very interesting and helped me to remember all of the knowledge of past tense in English that I used to study.And somethings when I was a child just played and learned.Even then I could correct mistakes in my memories.Oh,that was a wonderful thing for me.So I have abilities to correct my families' mistakes of past tense in English.I think she helped more people in English this week.
