Phrasal Verbs and Topic Sentences - Level 5

Hi Students!

Happy Tuesday! Today we are studying phrasal verbs, and topic sentences.

1) To get you started, you can go to the web page below:

http://a4esl.org/q/h/idioms.html

Also, you can click on the a4esl.org link in the right-hand column and then search for phrasal verbs on that website.

2) Additionally, we are learning about topic sentences. You can go to the following web page:

http://www.eslbee.com/topic_sentences.htm

This website, eslbee.com has a very good explanation of a topic sentence and a controlling idea. Additionally, there is a quiz that checks for your comprehension on the subject.

3) After learning about topic sentences, you should then write a paragraph, use your Passages book, p.31 as reference for topics on sleep issues.


Go for it!!!

Your teacher,
Bonnie
