First period worked on inferring again after doing some review work on the use of apostrophes as a starter

Second and fourth periods began by looking at an incredibly long sentence from last night’s homework.

I found out within a few hours, and may mention at once, that Mrs. Pocket was the only daughter of a certain quite accidental deceased Knight, who had invented for himself a conviction that his deceased father would have been made a Baronet but for somebody’s determined opposition arising out of entirely personal motives – I forget whose, if I ever knew – the Sovereign’s, the Prime Minister’s, the Lord Chancellor’s, the Archbishop of Canterbury’s, anybody’s – and had tacked himself on to the nobles of the earth in right of this quite supposititious fact.

After some analysis, we determined it was a complex sentence, literally and figuratively. (Well, a compound-complex sentence — slightly off, second period.)

Sixth period prepared for a debate tomorrow and seventh period reviewed for a test tomorrow.
