Writing Class:
Follow the instructions on the last page of the Sentence-Composing Tools: Participial Phrase packet and draft a narrative paragraph. Revise the plain sentences on that page. At the caret marks (insertion marks), add present or past participles or participial phrases. Use your Warriner's packet, pp. 94-97, to help you. Complete this assignment in your own Google Document. Highlight your participles and participial phrases in yellow. Use MLA format and your best writing skills. This is due at the beginning of class on Friday, January 27. If you finish this early during class today, you may read your independent reading book and work on your slideshow. You may also work on this week's IXL KK6 or next week's IXL, KK7 and KK8. Literature Class: Review our short story "Three Skeleton Key" at Actively Learn. If you were absent yesterday, you will need to read the story first. Answer all embedded questions and be ready to discuss the story tomorrow. Your responses must be time-stamped in Actively Learn by 7:30 AM on Friday, January 27. Whatever you do not finish in class today becomes homework. If you finish early, you may read your independent reading book, work on your slideshow, or work on IXL. Comments are closed.
