Today we got our Sightlines 10 books from the library (along with a reading book).
We discussed metaphors and learned that some metaphors are simple (The road was a thin ribbon bathed in the moonlight), some are implied (Brett barked out the answers), and some are extended (Melina became entangled in a web of her own emotions and the more she struggled, the more she was trapped in the threads).
We also completed some work on prefixes and suffixes.
Remember to bring your reading book with you to each English class!
Word of the week is "pithy" which means thoughtful or effective. It's not uncommon for Brett to offer a pithy remark during class.
