Correct the pupil's work below by writing it out in your books:
best and worst 10th september
i think that saturday is the worst day of the week. on saturday i
have to do the cleaning and cooking and i cannot go out with my
friend sally to broadmead. i think the best day is sunday because
i can lie in bed and eat a bar of cadbury's flake. i think
january is the worst month because i get a cold and i have to go
to doctor gordon. i think august is the best month because we go
to cornwall. a lot of people in our road, which is brompton road,
go as well. One year we went to oxford canal and on the river
thames in a boat and it was super. i hope we can go again next
