Subordination and Coordination Some More

Get out the handout from the Prezi on Monday.

Using the handout, add commas to the following. Each one DOES need a comma:

1. Since school started yesterday in Lincoln I've been thinking about my first day of school.

2. I had several first days at new schools but I always think of the one when my picture was taken as I left the house.

3. Even though I have no clear memories of that day I still automatically picture the little girl with short hair and a sailor shirt.

4. Does this mean that most of my memories now are based on old photos and I'd better take as many pictures as possible from here on out? Yes.

 Now let's look at fixing a problem:

Education is an elusive word, it often means different things to different people.

Fix this comma splice FOUR different ways. Now look in Everyday Writer.

Now do Ex. 25.1 page 289 in your daybook. Make this paragraph flow smoothly, with logical connections between ideas. Use either subordination or coordination to accomplish this.

Homework:

1. Finish Exercise 25.1 from the Everyday Writer.

2. Complete your notes about Staples' "Black Men and Public Space," and be ready to write about it tomorrow during class.

3. TWFTD: your choice from Staples' article using the OED.
