Describing Past

Hi Guys!

This week, we have been studying different tenses to describe the past. This is the task I want you to do. Below, you will find a story starter. I need you to continue narrating the story in a short post (around 50 words). Make sure you provide enough details so the next person can continue narrating it. Don't lead it to an abrupt end! Remember many of your classmates might still want to comment. We are all going to narrate ONE nice story. Try to use the correct tenses to narrate it in past. Good luck! JMC.
