Today my group had reading. We had to pick a task card and learn about it so I wanted to learn about Tobacco. Here is what I had to do for 30 minutes. I had to read the questions that were on the reading card and answer them. I had a differnet mind set I wanted to ask teachers about my questions that were on the card. Take a look of what the teachers think about the questions and what they answerd with. Hope you like it and please leave a comment down below of what I could work on. Thank you :)
