Grammar Review

Here are the pages for the Grammar Review, as per the English Department's mandate for English 11:  Read pages 121-135 on Parts of Speech.  Perform Exercises A, B, C on pages 137-138.  Read Subject/Predicate on page 143 and do Exercise 3.  Read pg 141 on Complete Sentences and pg 147 on Correcting Fragments.  Finally, do Exercise 6 on page 147 and 148.  This should provide us with a thorough initial review.

9/13 Slightly off schedule

Hello students.  Going into the weekend we are in the midst of our writing diagnostic.  We have received the study guide for Of Mice and Men and should be working to have it completed by midweek.  Next week we will also be doing our grammar review.  The page numbers will be forthcoming, as we have received new grammar books and the page numbers have changed.
