            Julie�s Birthday (New Puppy) Story Comic Strip Writing Exercise 
            
            This is a story I wrote and made into a cartoon strip using toondoo.com.  It�s about a girl who gets a puppy for her birthday, and includes a lot of vocabulary relevant to that topic (bone, chew, squeaky, bark etc).

            Rare vs Rarely and Seldom 
            
            I had a student who kept confusing �rare� and �rarely�, but was very confident about �seldom�, so I made this specific practice exercise!  It might be useful if you are working on adverbs of frequency, or the difference between adverbs and adjectives.
