In Class:
Journal-- Respond to the following quote: "We are always getting ready to live and never living." - Ralph Waldo Emerson
GMX-- Parts of Speech
Review of the definition and purpose of helping verbs--remember, shades of meaning:
He marries you.
He can marry you.
He will marry you.
He should marry you.
He must marry you.
He didn't marry you.
*All of these sentences use the same action verb but convey slightly (or completely) different meanings.
Next, we read "Why Can't I Own a Canadian?" and further discussed techniques of persuasive style.
Students worked independently on their final projects.
