October 7th

8-5 We had a stimulating grammar lesson and then students began writing their myths.

8-6 also enjoyed a good dose of grammar before some students left for a strings sectional and the remaining students got their creative juices flowing while working on their myths.

8-7 We reviewed 's, s and s'. We then went over what makes a myth a myth and what needs to be contained in their myths.

Your myth must contain:

1 metaphor or simile
onomatopoeia
alliteration
descriptive verbs

It is to be double spaced, hand-written or typed, 2-4 pages. No smaller than 12 pt font please.

This iS NOT homework at this point. Students will be given class time.

8-8 worked on the "Monde en Marche" booklet, their maps, reviewing for their quiz, their myth and their "J'ai peur".
There will be a quiz on the VANDERTRAMP verbs next Thursday or Friday.

Have a restful weekend and enjoy the sunshine!
