7th Grade--1/5

Today we met in our HW groups to review last night's homework. After that, we rearranged our groups and competed in a game to create simple, compound, complex and compound-complex sentences. Winners of this competition earned e-bucks for their group.

At the end of class, students took a preassessment on idioms. The idioms unit will be in two weeks.

For tomorrow, there has been a change of plan. Since I will not be in the building (jury duty), I don't want to leave you to decipher my comments on your own. As such, we will be doing our essay corrections during class on Monday after the grammar quiz. The quiz should only take ten-fifteen minutes, so you will have the rest of the period to make your revisions. The final draft will be due on Friday of next week.
