paragraphs, one for each area.
(c) Underline the sentences about school subjects.
(d) Make Bold the sentences about tasks at home.
(e) Make Italic the sentences about your activities.
(f) Pick three of your favourite things from the nine sentences. For example
swimming or using computers. Make the font larger for just those words.
