Today, we discussed the assignments that are due. Everything related to the novel Of Mice and Men was dead-lined for today. I am extending it to tomorrow. Anything not handed in at that point will not be accepted as the mark is cumulative.
We also decided that the comprehension exam for this novel (M.C) will be on Wednesday, November 25. If you miss it, you will have to write an alternative.
I have informed the students that we will be working on an essay from the end of the week until Friday, December 4.
Today, we worked on understanding Apostrophes (contractions and possessions). You were shown Powerpoints on both of these. They can found in your "15 Common Errors" booklet under #13. I also gave you an additional handout of explanations (entitled "Chapter 14") and exercised for both contractions and apostrophe possessives. If you were not here, you need to do both of these.
