FUN english phrases!!!! <--LOOK HERE OMG!

Postby jessen100 on Wed Oct 12, 2011 9:45 am

im making a review sheet for my 3rd years containing all those italicized phrases from their 3 books(1st 2nd 3rd year). not ALL of them, but most of them as well as some prepositions and stuff. if you feel like helping write any example sentences it would be sweet. the more the better, or at least better variety. ive only come up with a few myself so far. if there are any other expressions you feel should be in there too, post it plz. i know you want to!

i think ima break this into two parts later...

You need to make a blank notebook for JHS students and put all those phrases on the front/back of the notebook. Money maker, right there! Just remember to give back some proceeds to the poor.
