summarizing what happened during each. Use transition
words at the beginning of each sentence to help your
summary flow smoothly.

creepy so they snuck into her house to investigate. Then, they saw a long
box in her basement that looked like someone could fit in there. Before

the garlic that they sprinkled around the classroom. Finally, the students
believed that Mrs. Jeepers hypnotized Eddy.
