1 & 3: How cool is the Alcott team close read prompt? I am so glad that I waited to read it with first hour this morning -- several strategies that never come up (zeugma, asyndeton, euphemism) made appearances and there was so much syntactical shifts adding to the text! I want to comment more about all our ideas from class, but seventh hour will be completing the close read tomorrow. If you missed class, I have a digital copy of the prompt for you - e-mail for you work so that you will be prepared for class tomorrow. Homework is to take your team thesis (if absent, write your own thesis) and write one body paragraph analyzing a strategy and its purpose.
First hour will feature a vocab review, and third hour will feature a vocab quiz for unit 14.
FYI - All syntax quizzes need to be made up by Friday.
7: After our vocabulary work, we completed the syntax quiz -- with sentences created by you! Alas, the quiz took up our time for the team close read, so we will do that tomorrow!
Tomorrow is the last day to make up Vocab Quiz 14.
