DEB MAKES WRONG CHOICES: Version 2
This is another version of another worksheet. I�ve had very good luck using this story and, this term, asked students to write and give me new chapters. I don�t teach writing but, if I did, I would invite students to add more material. Lots of activities accompany this text at the end. Hope it works for you as well as it did for me!
