"Good question, good question," he exclaimed. "Expectations is the place you must always go to before you get to where you're going. Of course, some people never go beyond Expectations, but my job is to hurry them along whether they like it or not."

Answer:

The author is playing with the meaning of "Expectations" as a place name. One meaning of the word is that no one ever drives farther than the place of Expectations. The other meaning is that no one ever moves past feeling an expectation to actually making something happen.

I stand here ironing would have been a very different story if you had been told from Emily’s point of view. Choose a part of th
iragen [17]

Mommy is leaving me again at this awful place. I hate it.  I know she thinks that is better for me, that she was advised to to do, that I will grow stronger, that I will be surrounded by girls my age, that I will be better nourished, but everything is a lie.


I can not stand the food, so I don't eat it. I miss Mommy so much. Why can't I stay at home with the new baby? Why is the new baby more important than me? They don't even let me keep my letters, so I can feel closer to them. The only thing that makde me happy is that I made a friend but all of a sudden she was taken away to other place.


Deep down, I know that I can't burden Mommy with all my silly feelings. I have to be strong for her and her baby. I will not complain. I only wish Mommy could understand that the only thing I need, the only thing I desire is a family, a house, love, hugs and attention. I hope Mommy comes soon to pick me up, as it is the only thing I crave for.

How do u go to beginning readers​
Pavel [41]

before beginning to read, a person must know letters and their sounds.

the first tip is for the beginners to learn how to combine letters and make sounds out of it.

also, in the beginning, by showing them certain words, they can learn to memorize them.

————————

some great tips are:

- read to a child while using an energetic tone

- point to each word as you read

- ask the child questions about the story

- give him/her some beginner books

- set a positive example by reading books

- teach the alphabet and build phonemic awareness

- help the child sound out words

it is good to read the same stories several times and have the Child read aloud to you.

go easy on the beginners and try to be patiant :)
