Time to Write

After peer reviewing your subjective and objective paragraphs (remember, hold on to all of these descriptive writing practices for later turn-in date), we added three more vocabulary words to our vernacular. Then, we read the following article to look at imagery and other literary elements used to describe the culture, the father, and the situation of the author: https://www.cabrillo.edu/academics/english/100resources/'Only%20Daughter'.pdf.

Afterwards, you received three assignments.

Up on deck first will be 3 descriptive paragraphs for Monday's class. Select three family members and write one paragraph describing each one to an audience that has never had the opportunity to meet him or her. Make sure to include details that physically and emotionally represent this person.

For Tuesday, you will need to complete the Grammar Prep handout. For each item on the handout, be able to define and provide examples for course review on Tuesday.

For Wednesday, you have the optional extra credit assignment: summary posters.

Any absentees are welcome to e-mail for the specific handouts.
