We are looking at the characteristics of narrative writing, to prepare for writing our own narratives. In particular we are talking about how language changes over time. Share with your child what words have different meanings today. For example, sick, epic, the net, cell, etcc.
We also discussed today how words that we used when we were young might be a problem for other people that do not understand what we are talking about. For example, some students in our class refer to a popsicle as a "pagawan," Old Fort Road is referred to as "Old Fart Road," Grandma is Yamma.
