Students began by handing in their homework: paragraphs on Hannah's character. Several students still need to hand them in including Daniel, Jack, Taylor, Matthias, Peter, River, Richard, Jake, Takara, Jordan, Mallory, Gabriel, and Timo.
Today we learned how to begin a sentence with
-an infinitive phrase
-the words "For example,"
-the word 'Because"
We then read the poem Envy and understood that the FORM of the poem matched the CONTENT of the poem. That is, the central contrast of the poem -- that the speaker wishes he was the "guileless boy" -- is emphasized because the poem has left and right sections.
Finally we completed an in-class assignment on Connecting words.
Six students have had their homework done each of the four times I've checked. You guys ROCK. Homework Kings and Queens are Claire, Marie, Dave, Cailin, Darren, and Myah.
