Miri and Raru: Response to Text

Task description: Today we read a story called Miri and Raru. It was a story that was written like a comic. It is about a girl who loves to daydream and draw pictures rather than pay attention during class time. For this task we had to think about the text we had read and answer questions and create our own. Check out my task above and feel free to leave me a positive comment on my blog.
