Household Chores Lesson

Household chores are tasks we do around the house to keep it clean. Some chores need to be
done every day. Others need to be done several times a week or just once a week. Examples: I
wash the dishes every day, but I wash my clothes just once a week. I cook three times a day,
but I mop the kitchen floor just once a week. There are chores we like to do and chores we
don't like to do. Most people don't like to take out the trash. (5 pages)
