ENGLISH - 1st trimester – Day 30

REMINDER: Study for Friday’s fill-in-the blank Prefix test #3 (the next 11 prefixes from “30-15-10” list) including the following prefixes from your sheet = # 23 – #33 (re – cred)

DIRECTIONS:

1.         Write a 3 or 4 -word sentence (doer-doing-done to) like:

“Bayle collects shells” or “Jon hit the ball.”

2.         LABEL the 3 parts: A, B, C

IMPORTANT: When reading A+B and asking “what” afterward, your C should be the answer…ex. Bayle collect what? Shells.

3.         RULE: You may not ADD an A or a B or a C.

4.         Next, expand your ¾-word sentence into a sentence of 15 words without losing the doer-doing-done to structure.

As an example, here is a 15-word expansion for “Jon hit the ball.”

            In the middle of the sixth inning, Jon, the league leader, hit the curve ball.

NEXT:

Write down these 7 labels into your NOTES:

1.when 2.who 3.which one 4.what kind 5.where 6.how 7.why

Now, expand your 15-word sentence into a sentence of 35 words without losing the A, B, C (doer-doing-done to) structure.

Next, using your 35-word sentence from yesterday, LABEL the chunks using the 7 labels from today’s notes.

ADD TO NOTES: Foreshadowing: planting clues about what will happen later in a story

Practiced identifying examples of foreshadowing.
