Only two weeks! Unbelievable, isn't it? It seems as though we just began our journey into the heart of the English language. This time of year always proves conflictual -- I anticipate the end, but I know I'll miss our time together each week.
For EEL yesterday, we reviewed our purposes, patterns and structures and then modified and diagrammed a compound-complex sentence with adjectives, adverbs and a prepositional phrase. The students remained engaged throughout the process; I'm really proud of them! Next week -- I can't wait -- we'll diagram the Preamble to the Constitution. :) It's lo-o-o-ong!
During IEW, I discussed anecdotal openers and the intro-clincher relationship. I distributed Lessons 19, 20 and 21. Everyone should continue working on their biographies according to the information I wrote last week, using the lessons I handed out as they relate to your student's level.
Two weeks from yesterday, we present in costume. It's a fantastic way to cap our year.
See you next week.
