Weekend Homework



This weekend you must go to a museum and then write about it on your blog.

For your reading, you must finish the book and then go back to find at least 5 vocabulary words on each chapter that are new for you. The words should be used more than one to
time. Try to guess the meaning from the way the word is used, but remember that words can have more than one meaning so don't be confused if that happens.
