Feb 9
Bell ringer, of course! The OGT won't throw a word at us that we haven't rocked out in a bell ringer, ya know? Next, we wrapped up Frost's poem by articulating how it relates to The Catcher in the Rye. Then, we took a three-question assessment on the novel. As you finished, you started on your vocabulary sentences, which MUST have five sentences that contain a prepositional phrase (underlined.) For a list of prepositional phrases, go to the grammar/writing page on your web site. Sentences are due tomorrow AT the beginning OF the block!

Can a sentence have TWO prepositional phrases in it and have it count as two phrases?
ReplyDeleteMrs Stallman, we forgot to tell you in class today, but Emily and I (and I think Sean) will not be there at the start of class tommorow as we will be taking the AMC test with Mrs. Kemp. We'll be back probably halfway through the block. I just thought it would be a good idea to let you know.
ReplyDeleteSorry this is so late, Greg. Umm...for the purpose of your vocabulary sentences, I guess I don't really care if you put more than one prepositional phrase in a sentence and have it count more than once since you ultimately have to write 22 sentences anyways! Whatever you did was fine. Normally, I will check this earlier...but I did not get home until 10:00! Yuck!
ReplyDeleteHannah-
Thanks for letting me know. I am sure you are an emotional wreck over missing our bell ringer bonding...but you will have to tackle it alone. Perhaps you and Emily (and Sean?) could peer edit one another's sentences prior to turning them in...? See you when you arrive. We will be waiting with great anticipation (prepositional phrase!)
