Week of Sept. 24-27

We did Week 3 of DGP and learned about participles and compound sentence parts.  Our sentence was standing on a ladder i slipped and broke a window.  Come see me if you are feeling confused or frustrated by DGP (and no, I didn't invent diagramming, but it sure is fun)!  We read the first three chapters of Lord of the Flies and had a quiz over chapter 1 on Monday.  Stay caught up on your reading because I love pop quizzes.  We also had vocabulary words for the first three chapters.  Definitions were due on Thursday.  You can turn them in to me on Monday for partial credit.  Be prepared for a vocabulary quiz and quiz over chapter 1-3 on Monday.  Discussion questions for chapter 1-3 were given out on Thursday.  Be sure to provide page numbers and text support for your answers.  We will go over them on Monday 10/1.  Have a good three day weekend.  Read chapter 4 for Monday.
