HW from Thursday, 10/18/18

Due on AND BEFORE Tuesday, 10/23/18

1) Make a list of 25 attributions (“said” replacements). You may include those that we did together in class today. (Think of these attributions on your own! Do not use the Internet!)

2) Type the list into a Word document, using a separate line for each attribution. DO NOT NUMBER THE LIST! Be sure the document follows all of our guidelines for typed compositions. 

3) Email this document to me as an attachment BEFORE THE WEEKEND. Be sure your email subject line also follows proper form.

4) Read the handout I gave you (containing the excerpt from The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe) entitled “Punctuating Dialogue.” Pay special attention to the conversations that are underlined, noting how they are punctuated.

5) Visit this blog and carefully read all of the material. (It is on the correct usage of quotation marks and dialogue.) Take notes on any rules that are presented that are different than those we’ve discussed already in class.

6) Read for your Reading Log! You will need an equivalent of 24 or more 30-minute reading sessions to qualify for a 100, A+ this quarter. Remember, if all of my students earn 100, A+ grades on any given month’s log, we will have a celebration involving fun food!

-------

Also, daily:

+ Read your (approved) book for pleasure, aiming for 30 minutes daily. Mark the number of minutes on your Reading Log as you go along—in multiples of five, rounded down—and have a parent initial it in the box each day. The October Reading log is due on Thursday, November 1.

+ Continue to print out each homework blog entry, check off each assignment as you complete it, and have your parent sign the completed, printed sheet. Bring it to class each day.
