HOMEWORK for February 25: Why? Because…
Assignment: Answer one these two questions. Use complete sentences.
- Is there something that you really want to do someday? If there is: what is it, and why do you want to do it? If there isn’t: why not?
For example: I want to go skydiving one of these days. It sounds scary, but my friends say it’s a lot of fun. I want to do it because it’s a new challenge for me. Also, I wonder how it feels to float in air.
