"Courteous Detachment"

Today we started with DEAR time, and then went straight into our There/Their/They're Quiz. After grading all of them, I was glad to see that almost all of you did very well. Hopefully this means that you will not be mixing these words up any more in your writing. Next week, we're going to tackle too, to, and two.

As a reminder, there will be a quiz on Chapters 11, 1, and 2 on Monday so it's up to you to read Chapter 2 on your own over the weekend. We've gone over Chapter 11 and 1 in class but now it's time to test your own reading comprehension. How well do you understand the material on your own? Mr. Hannah and I will not be checking your annotation or your reading questions; however, it's in your best interest to do this, otherwise, you will not do well on the quiz. The reading questions are there to check your understanding of the chapter and act as a way to guide you while you study.

In class, we finished going over the Carousel questions you did in your groups yesterday. As I mentioned in class, it's important that you took notes on what we went over because I guarantee you these questions will reappear somewhere down the line (perhaps even sooner than you think).

Study, study, study!
