Camila the Gaming Star

Description: Camila wants to buy a camera, camera stand, and a microphone to record for her WeTube channel, and her brother suggests that an uncoming video game tournament might be the way to get the money she needs; but Camila does not play video games, and though her family supplies what she will need to practice she only has a month to perfect her gaming skills--and that may not be enough to win. Includes discussion questions, glossary, and related activity.
