Chapter 20

Handouts from class are attached below to be viewed online or downloaded and printed.

The most important grammar concepts in Stage 20 are Present Participles and the personal pronoun is, ea, id (he, she, it).  There is a handout on Present Participles that is to be studied very carefully and mastered.  It has a practice quiz on the back.  For Stage 20, we will only do Present Participles.  We will pick up Perfect Passive Participles in Stage 21 (although you already know them from your 4th principal part of the verb).

The paradigm (chart) for is, ea, id may be found in your 20 Models A packet or in your book on p. 192. It is to be memorized.

Read the stories in Stage 20 for plot comprehension first.  Then go back and do the Model sentences in the handouts for practice.  The Stage Test will be based upon the Models.
