Writing 2 Class Notes -- Week 12 (April 22)

 Greetings!

Just a brief note this week.

As always, we had a good class today.  In addition to our Quick Writes and Words of the Day, we had a discussion about common errors & corrections for the rough drafts of the Evaluation Essays.  Then, we broke into small groups to discuss the assigned poems.  Finally, for our grammar section I taught the students how to use the semicolon using Reese's peanut butter cups as an object lesson.

A gentle reminder:  Masks are still required at CHAT (including in the classroom) unless a student's parents have contacted Mrs. Nelson or Mrs. Johnson.  I often ask students to temporarily pull down their masks when I am having a hard time hearing their comments, but otherwise, the masks should be on.  

Assignments for Next Week:

• Evaluation Essay Final Draft

• Poetry: Read Frost (49-50), Sandburg (53-54), Williams (60- 61), Hughes  (75-78)

Note: The individual poems have been posted on Google Classroom: Week 13 Poetry

• Poetry Response (2 Poems)

• Grammar:  Wk11 - The Colon

• Grammar:  Wk11 - Using Semicolons and Colons
