Que Sera Sera
It is great that you integrated a lesson plan with also guiding students to think about their future. It reminds me of the song Que Sera Sera, whatever will be will be...Getting child to think about their future and learning about grammar is great! I will download the plan and see how I can tailor it for use in my class.
