Weak Verbs getting bullied at the beach!

Today we learned that weak verbs need strong verbs -- and we learned that the strong verb always shows up at the end.

Furthermore, we learned that modal auxiliary verbs are weak verbs.  We discussed all 7 modal verbs from Kapitel 6 and 7.  Then students completed #7-11 from Kapitel 6 and handed it in.
