THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING SO WONDERFUL WITH THE SUPPLY YESTERDAY!   English 9 - Today, we discussed your views on this week's Article of the Week, then we examined how writers (that includes you!) can use short sentences in their writing for a little extra punch.  We then returned to our look at the friendly letter I wrote to you, and period two created a rubric we'll use to score your reponse letter to me.  Picture day provided a ton of interruptions, so that's what we managed to accomplish.   English 122 - We also had a discussion about your Article of the Week (great EVALUATIONS...NOT opinions!!), analyzed your responses to the guiding questions, and took a deeper look at some of John Hersey's great choices as a writer.  Good job!
