Today – Students will analyze five sentences in a paragraph to determine the number of clauses and the type of sentence.  It is necessary for students to remove any prepositional or infinitive phrases, find the subjects with verbs (predicate), bracket each clause to label it as DC or IC, and determine the sentence type.

If absent today, students will make up the quiz Monday, 11/28.

Students will receive TWA #1 and TWA #2, and they will review these for any discrepancies between what was scored and what might need to be reviewed with Mr. Thompson.  We will not have time to discuss this today, but students will keep the notes for reviewing later.

Students will be provided sample sentences to practice for the upcoming sentence structure assessment occurring tomorrow.  Each sentence will be analyzed for prepositional phrases, infinitive phrases, verbs, subjects, bracket locations, clause types, and the sentence type.  In addition to these skills, students will also be required to know the formulas for the four types of sentences.

We will finish the peer evaluation for TWA #2.  Remember to continue studying for the upcoming assessment over sentence structure as described online November 16.
