Reflect on what we did together in class and complete the level that is best for you to practice and review what we did in class! 

“Of Mice and Men”

John Steinbeck

A few miles south of Soledad, the Salinas River drops in close to the hillside and runs deep and green. The water is warm in the sunlight before reaching the narrow pool. On one side of the river the golden foothill slopes curve up to the strong and rocky mountains, but on the valley side the water is lined with trees. On the sandy bank under the trees the leaves lie deep and so crisp that a lizard makes a great skittering if he runs among them. Rabbits come out of the brush to sit on the sand in the evening.
