Greetings Students!
I can hardly believe it's already week 6! We meet three times this week, so we should be about to accomplish quite a bit. We've already started our study of Native American literature and will continue with that, so bring your texts. I also have a couple of creation myths not in your books that I will share with you, the Navajo Creation Story and the Walum Olum, of the Delaware Indians.
In addition to this, we will continue our study of "the phrase" by seeing how prepositional phrases can act as adjectives and adverbs. We will also practice identifying verbals, or words that look like verbs but are used as some other part of speech. Verbals include gerunds, participles and infinitives. Expect quizzes on each of these, as well as a quiz on your next vocabulary lesson.
And don't forget Poetry Out Loud class competition is the last week of September!
So much to do...so little time!
See you in class,
Mrs. SO
