English I students began the day with more work on parallel structure, a topic we’ve been covering mainly through No Red Ink practice.

worked on the prologue to Romeo and Juliet. We’ve marked it for a few things:

• Unknown words
• Pronouns and antecedents
• Actions of the “star-cross’d lovers”
• The consequence of the lovers’ actions (see above)

Period 4’s annotations

English 8 students worked on flow quotes versus dialogue quotes:

Notes from No Red Ink

We’re working to incorporate more flow quotes into our writing and fewer dialogue quotes. To that end, we spent some time identifying and then properly punctuating some of them.

Homework

• English 8: work on No Red Ink practice (formatting flow quotes / dialogue quotes) as needed.
• English I Honors: 
  • work on No Red Ink practice (parallel structure) as needed
  • work on text structure work as needed.
