Cat that takes the Bus - Lesson - Article + Video
« on: June 27, 2011, 10:50:27 am »
Hi everyone,

I was on www.reddit.com the other day and found a link to a picture of a cat taking the bus. I googled the cat and found an article.

The worksheet has a vocab. section, comprehension question section and pictures on the back. The S can describe what happens in each picture before/after reading the article. There's also a video attached, but it's of another cat in the UK who also takes the bus  :o

This could possibly be used in an after school high school class or with some Korean English co-teachers.

Update:
As I was looking for the video link, it turns out the cat passed away (got run over)  :(
Here's a link with the story:

I rewrote the article for a lower-level class. This can be used with middle schoolers or even advanced elementary students. I did not include all of the details of the original article for simplicity's sake.

Note to OP: I don't think the cat in the video and the cat in the article are the same. The cat in the article has a different name and is said to be all white...
