Language Arts Weekly Challenge (Feb. 7 - Feb. 11, 2011) - CRCT Practice

The following weekly challenge is due Friday. Good luck.

1I really like my English teacher, Ms. Wily. 2The first reason that I like Ms. Wily is that she has made me realize how much fun it can be to read. 3She gets really excited when she talks about the books that we read. 4She has given me a new respect for my own imagination. 5She says it is a wonderful thing to imagine what the characters in a book look like and sound like.

6Secondly, I like Ms. Wily, because she makes me want to learn as much as I can. 7She has inspired me to work harder than I have ever worked. 8Now, I read all the books that are assigned. 9Then, I started reading some of the books. 10Before, I didn't read any of the books that were assigned for English class. 11 Ms. Wily makes me want to learn. 12Art class is fun, too. 13Art is my second favorite class.
