Cindy Syntax

1st hour:

  1. Copied down Vocab Unit 14 and assigned words. We will, time permitting, commence this unit tomorrow.
  2. As a class, we shared section purposes of Cinderella Ate My Daughter.
  3. In your chosen groups, each of you became responsible for highlighting 1-2 sentence structures in a page range of the text. Then, you shared your finding with your group, notating the various types of syntax throughout your assigned pages and clarifying patterns of syntax.
Tomorrow, make sure to bring back your text, purpose annotations, and syntactical analysis. You will be in a new group, one composed of people from other page ranges, and you will be sharing your findings to prep for the writing prompt. Once that group work is complete, you will have your writing prompt. I have been asked whether you could have an outline for this writing prompt, which would be quite difficult to do since you do not have a prompt yet. The prompt will be given to you tomorrow. Forecasting an outline would  not be appropriate for the assignment or for your time. Hence, NO OUTLINE - just bring your text with you.

3rd hour:
  1. We started Vocab Unit 14 with 4 new works today. We will, time permitting, continue with four more words tomorrow.
  2. As a class, we shared section purposes of Cinderella Ate My Daughter.
  3. In your chosen groups, each of you became responsible for highlighting 1-2 sentence structures in a page range of the text. 
Tomorrow, make sure to bring back your text, purpose annotations, and syntactical analysis. You will reconvene with your group and look at the various syntax types and patterns of syntax. You will then be in a new group, one composed of people from other page ranges, and you will be sharing your findings to prep for the writing prompt. Once that group work is complete, you will have your writing prompt. I have been asked whether you could have an outline for this writing prompt, which would be quite difficult to do since you do not have a prompt yet. The prompt will be given to you tomorrow. Forecasting an outline would  not be appropriate for the assignment or for your time. Hence, NO OUTLINE - just bring your text with you.

If you were absent, you should identify the types of syntax on pg. 9 so that you may be part of the experience tomorrow. 

7th hour:

After we finished the vocabulary quiz, we read Cinderella Ate My Daughter and identified the purpose of each paragraph/section. For homework, finish reading and identifying the purposes - we will use this in class tomorrow! If you want a hint of what is to come, you can read first and third hours' synopses.
