Only 2 more days to go to a sunny weekend! Today we talked about subject and object pronouns.
We did a sheet with questions on them. Do the Applications section of that sheet and write 5 sentences of your own.
Take one of the three paragraph essays we have done this week and revise it. Bring it back to class tomorrow for editing. Check carefully that you have a strong opening and an appropriate conclusion. Do not overuse the same transition words. Put page numbers in brackets like this: (42). Check to make sure that you do not have run-on sentences or sentence fragments. Verify the use of the semicolon and check that you have used it correctly. If you use reflexive pronouns, don't overuse them in your paragraph. They are meant to add emphasis.
The final typed copy will be due on Friday. You must attach all 3 drafts together along with your rubrics, or I will not mark them.
There is a quiz on Chapters 10-12. This involves more writing. Review what you know about the females in this section of the novel.
Lit terms quiz to editorial on Friday. Chapters 13-15 on Friday.
