Don't feel bad. In my School 2 years ago only 5 kids passed out of
5 classrooms of 35 students. Are your kids language learners.......
then if so be sure they Describe the Scene in detail including sound
and sight, smell, etc. , Describe what others are doing and saying,
Tell what they are doing and saying, What they are thinking, Use
onomonopia, (sp)......stay away from lists of activities or events.
dwell on 3 major ones in detail....... its a start... good luck.
