Writing:
1. Yesterday, we proofread and revised printed copies of the Serra Club Vocations Essay and then read them aloud with table partners to find additional ways to strengthen our writing. These were collected by the end of class. 2. We also started working on IXL GG1, GG2, and GG3. These cover verb usage, focusing on using correct forms of irregular past tense verbs and on preventing inappropriate verb tense shift. 3. Today, we will use the class period to complete these IXL. They are due today by 7:00 PM. Literature: 1. Yesterday, we read and discussed the Holocaust timeline in our literature books on pp. 532-533 and continued reading the background article at Actively Learn. 2. Today, we will finish the article and answer all questions embedded at Actively Learn. These are due by the end of class. Comments are closed.
