Sentence Variety

I return the Lego directions. Did you read Mowat?

Make up three short sentences about wolves.

Now we combine them.

We look at sentences and Section 24 in Everyday Writer. I explain subordination and coordination.

Do Ex. 24.1 from page 27 in the Everyday Writer exercise book in your daybook.  Recopy the paragraph using subordination and coordination to make it read more smoothly.


Homework:

1.  Draft #2 due, typed. Look at your sentences.  Is there variety in length and structure?  Run spell check.  Be sure all your details help to make your point.  You should be certain what your point is! Make sure your draft will be accessible in the computer lab on a computer, in a readable file. Also bring a hard copy to class.


2.  TWFTD: euphemism.
