Misc. Grammar

Questions about Summary/Response?

Then we'll look at misplaced modifiers, and you read section 35, doing exercises 35.1, 35.2, 35.3 and 35.4 as you go. Do the odd numbered sentences only, writing them in your journal.

When you are done with that you may work on your draft.

Homework:


1. Prepare Draft #2 for tomorrow. Be sure that you have an introduction that begins with a hook and clearly cites your article.

2. I'll collect journals tomorrow.
