Here's what to expect in class this week:
We are done with vocabulary. If you borrowed a book, please return it to me or Mrs. Thrash.
Instead of vocabulary, we will focus for the next few days on some grammar rules using GrammarBytes, the same online tool we used to review parallel structure. We will include a few items from this on our test over The Great Gatsby next Tuesday. Here's a link to the exercise:
