I was not here for block 5 as I was at the junior retreat. I will miss blocks 4 and 5 tomorrow.
Today the classes turned in the final drafts of the autobiography paper. one more formal paper to go...a resume and cover letter next quarter!!
Grammar exercises were centered around comma and semicolon usage. We discussed comma rules on pages 255-257 and completed page 258. We looked at rules about semicolons on pages 259-260. Block 5 was to complete exercise 4 on page 631 (all).
Tomorrow ALL students need their grammar books and outside reading books in class. Grammar exercises will be done and there may be time to read from the outside reading book (report due Friday 3-26-10).
