I hope everyone enjoyed the warm, wonderful long weekend!

A few notes:


  • Text book check- in is tomorrow! Bring all your textbooks you have at home back to school. This includes the blue Elements of Literature book! 
  • Locker clean-out is Thursday after lunch. You may want to bring a plastic bag (or two) to carry your extra things home.

Today we reviewed compound, complex (and compound/complex in some classes) sentences. If you need the practice sheet handed out today for homework, please go to Canvas, then modules, then "Compound and Complex Sentence Practice" under Sentence Types practice. All the practice sheets we have been working with are your study guides for the quiz Thursday. I will also post links to some online quizzes for practice later this evening. We also continued with suspense stories. These are incredible! Your stamina as writers has grown so much!

H/W:
  • Bring textbooks for textbook check-in tomorrow.
  • Sentence types practice sheet due tomorrow. 
  • Sentence types quiz on Thursday. The sentence types you need to know are: simple, compound, complex, compound/complex.
See you tomorrow!
