7th Grade--4/30

Today students began class by meeting in groups to review their grammar homework. After that, I addressed the full class about common concerns I had with the narratives. Those were as follows...

Character description

More literary elements

More sensory description

What did you learn/importance

Verb tense—past

ONE moment

Proper dialogue punctuation

After that, students had half an hour to work on their final drafts and ask questions about my commentary.
