Crazy busy short week

Homework due for Tuesday, October 26th.

It just seems like every single week we have a day off or something special that disrupts our school day. This week (Oct 20th to 22nd) we will not be having classes because the teachers are off to Calgary for a convention.

Since you will be having a few extra days at home you will be given a package of information to work on. The first package will deal with Quoatation Marks, Punctuating dialogue, Effective Adjectives and Using Transition words. I found that many of us know about these different elements of writing but forget how to use them to make our writing more effective. It is important to have these reminders so that we can get to the point where the reader is able to concentrate on the content of your work rather than the mechanics.

The second package - Comma Splices, Simple Sentences, Independent and Subordinate clauses, and Combining sentences must also be completed.

Please pay careful attention to the instructions. If you have any questions or concerns make a note of them on the side of your paper so that we can address them in class.

Both packages are due for Tuesday, October 26th.
