Hi Belinda, we’re glad you’re enjoying the posts!
Hi!how could i make a woorksheet of this story???thaannkss!!!
Hi Beatriz!
I would recommend maybe you copy and paste the text and the vocabulary on to a Word document and then converted it into a PDF. You could copy the link of the video there too. Otherwise, you could send your student the link to our blog; it’d be great if you could give us credit for the class!
I think the PDF with a link is the most versatile way to create a worksheet. You could additionally add some comprehension questions too.
Let me know if you’d like any help!
