STEP 3: Practice Speaking
Instructions:
Listen to each sentence and repeat out loud with your voice until you can say it quickly.
My school was vandalized. Someone painted the walls with spray paint.
The school principal called the police.
Who did this to the school? How did this happen? It's terrible.
The principal wants to remove it as soon as possible.
The students are angry. We want to do something.
How can we help? We look in the supply closet.
We find cleaning detergent, but it isn't strong enough.
We cannot wipe off the paint. It is permanent.
We need to paint over it.
How can we find matching paint? The janitor finds leftover paint in the school basement.
It matches the wall color.
Each student grabs a paint brush and we start painting over the graffiti.
The principal is very impressed with the students.
We decide that we want to paint a mural on one of the walls.
Who wants to design the picture? Everyone wants to contribute.
It's going to be beautiful.
