THURSDAY: Today the students shared their "Meet Me Word Splash." Please see yesterday's post to download this file. Additionally, we reviewed sentence types focusing on compound sentences. The students wrote the following sentence on their notes page:
Class Model-I like softball, but I haven't played in years.
They then identified the parts of the compound sentence and created a definition that was written on the page under the class model. Finally, they dove back into their second paragraphs and found their own example of a compound sentence OR created a new compound sentence by combining simple sentences.This sentence was written under the definition on the notes page and labeled "My example." We will continue using this notes page tomorrow as we review complex sentences.
HOMEWORK: 4th period should finish the Word Splash if it was not finished in class.
DUE TOMORROW: Framed paragraph and second, revised paragraph. There must be evidence of revision. It is not necessary to type these paragraphs. I need to see your originals and all revised work.
