I was asked to read my version of 'Daedalus and Icarus' to the class today. I thought that I had done a quite good job for it, but there are a few comments that I need to take into consideration. I always find it easy to put conjunction as to tell a story such as therefore, consequently, after that etc. In order to add ideas into my story, but today I have learnt that it is not the way to do an adaptation and to tell a story using conjunction. Now I know that an adaptation version will have a better flow without conjunction =)
Another thing that I have learned today is the usefullness of an adaptation version in giving the students the overall idea of a story. 'Daedalus and Icarus' is not an easy text to read, especially for the students. Therefor, it will be usefull if teacher can help students to have the overview picture of the story using the adaptation version of teh story.
