Following our lunches, we began our group exemplification on the term "sybaritic," a vocabulary word and an abstract adjective that needs better clarification via specific examples. In your group today, you brainstormed possible examples (according to one group, I somehow managed up on a list), constructed a thesis statement clarifying your group's definition of sybaritic, you selected your four examples for the essay, and then you determined the range of these examples. At the end of the hour, each person is the group claimed a paragraph of this essay as his or her responsibility. Come into tomorrow with your first draft so groups may peer evaluate and complete the best team essay.
Grammar Quest will also be tomorrow - after lunch. Make sure to review your handouts and notes so you will perform well on the assessment.
Tomorrow is the last day to make up vocab quiz 4.
