Kavi Looks Back on the Term

"Look how far you have flown this term!" cheered Kavi. "We built complex sentences with a main and a subordinate clause, we used the present perfect — I have seen, she has done — we explained idioms like a piece of cake, we chose the right joining words, and we followed command words like compare and explain. Today we use all of it together — let's show what we know!"
