March 31/ April 1, 2009

April 1 is your last day to hand in the book approval for on-time points (20 points out of 10).

QUIZ ON SUBJECTS, PREDICATES, AND IDENTIFYING DEPENDENT AND INDEPENDENT CLAUSES for A-Day students.

Test Preparation -- Recognizing Appropriate Sentence Construction
Students are working on this test practice in pairs.

Sentence Rehabilitation Race -- Students worked with parters to "rehabilitate" fragments, comma-splices, and run-ons into complete, correct sentences. (If you are absent, get the paper from the class folders, and do this on your own to hand in.)

Stand Tall
B2 needs to discuss pages 1 and 2 of the packet.
B-Day needs to look at the poem at the beginning of the book.
Start reading Stand Tall. We read pages 1-3, and answered the question about Mrs. Pierce in the packet. If you have lost your packet, you may go to the class wiki and print off another copy for yourself. Find it in the folder for Stand Tall.
