Its possible we may see it a couple of times in english or reading class but it will be used a lot in Social Studies.

I say rhythms because it can be confused with other words which will confuse the idea of the passage. I really like the word Mapping idea because it give the student a complete understanding of the word. Mon, 15 Jun 2020 20:26:08 -0400
