Back to the future: Our year starts here!

How well do you know your teacher?

A lot of things happened to me this summer ... But there is a problem! Some of them are NOT true! Can you find the lies?

  • I watched the night sky for shooting stars on the night of the Perseids in August.
  • 🎬 I saw The Odyssey, Nolan’s new movie.
  • 🕷️ I saw the new Spider-Man movie.
  • ☀️ I did a lot of sunbathing.
  • 🌙 I stayed up late most nights.
  • 🧳 I packed my suitcase three times before I finally decided what to take.
  • 🍉 I ate so much watermelon that I almost turned into one.
  • 🦟 I had a serious argument with a mosquito at 3 a.m.
  • I bought books for the summer and didn't read all of them. 😄
