Today, you will read articles from the newspaper, discussing car accidents
which happened in Israel over the last few months.
Your mission (in pairs or trios) is:
1.) Read the stories and choose one of the accidents or another accident you've heard or read about.
2.) Write (in English) how it happened and, if possible, add who is responsible for the accident and what he could do to prevent the accident. You may use the following question words to assist you: When? Where? Who? What? Which? How? In your writing, pay attention to Capitalization, Punctuation, Sentence structure, spelling and the proper usage of the past/present tenses.
3.) Show your draft to your teacher/send it to her by e-mail.
4.) Correct your work and get prepared to present the story in front of the class.
5.) Present your work to the class. In your presentation, include visual aids such a model or a map, as shown in class.
If you have any difficulties, ask your teacher for assistance.
