STEP 3: Practice Speaking
Instructions:
Listen to each sentence and repeat out loud with your voice until you can say it quickly.
Nothing was going right yesterday.
I was trying to do my homework and study for a test.
It was so stressful.
My math homework was really difficult so I struggled to finish it.
My parents tried to help me, but they also had trouble with it.
When I was done, I needed to write a paragraph for English class.
But my mom's laptop was acting up.
I had to write it by hand.
I will type it in the computer lab at school.
Then I was going to study for my science test.
But I could not find my textbook.
I wasted an hour looking for it.
I searched the whole house.
Then, I remembered that I left it on my front porch.
I was sitting with some friends yesterday after school.
I left it on the chair outside.
When I finally found it, it was getting very late.
I studied until I could not stay awake any longer.
My mother told me to go to bed.
I really didn't get enough sleep.
I must go to school early this morning, so I can finish my English homework in the computer lab.
I was hoping to have a good day, but it may be another stressful school day.
