TUESDAY, MAY 25

1) COLIN AND QUINTIN

and

ADAM AND AUSTIN 

WILL BE THE TEACHER ASSISTANTS TOMORROW. 

THEY WILL RUN THE CLASS FROM START TO FINISH.

2) Regular quiz on Thursday -- the last one. Boost your grade by as much as 1.0%!

3) Find three more sentences 

in three different essays 

that you really like. 

Copy and paste them into the "favorite sentences" blog post you started last week, 

give the title, subtitle, and date 

of the essay you took each one from, 

and write at least one good, detailed sentence explaining why you chose each one. 

Here is the proper format:

This is a sentence from a paragraph I wrote on Monday, May 24, entitled "Bird Songs and Student Words":

"It was good to realize, once again, that this far-reaching universe finds its own wonderful way without my particular help."

 I like this sentence because lately I've enjoyed using smooth interrupters, like "once again", to add rhythm to a sentence, and I like the adjective "far-reaching", which I found in the thesaurus. (I originally used "huge".)  I also like "wonderful way without" for its alliteration.
