Good morning, everyone!Â
On Sunday, February 17, we reviewed the simple past and past progressive verb tenses. The exercises we reviewed were on pages 22-26 of your grammar book. Â
Your writing assignment this week is to use these tenses as you write your essays on a type of food that is meaningful to you. What is your story behind this type of food? What cultural importance does this food hold for you?
Some ideas to get started can be found in two recent news stories. Check out this story on the BBC News about Rohinga and Uighur cuisine at

and Palestinian food at

I hope these stories give you some good ideas for your essays.
Â
See you all on Sunday, Feb. 24!
Take care,
Lee
