Overview

Your teacher may assign you a writing assignment that includes Because or I remember Cues. On these writing assignments, we've started the sentence for you. Your job is to finish the sentence. We'll use the target word in the start of the sentence, so you don't have to use it in your response. This article will show you how to navigate to your assignments, complete your work, and submit it to your teacher.
