Did you have cereal for breakfast?

Did you listen to music this morning?
Did you go shopping last weekend?
Did you watch the Super Bowl?
Tell your partner five things that you did before class today.
How did you feel on the day that you came to the United States?

5.   Click on the following link to go to a story about a dog. The story is written in the present tense, but it really should be in the past tense. Copy the whole story and paste it into a Microsoft Word document. Then change all of the verbs to the past tense.
