YOUR WORK:
DUE FRIDAY at midnight. Report your scores and include the summaries in the MISC section of your google doc. I apologize in advance: you have to listen to me talking at you a lot this week.
1. ACT Q set (Passage II beginning "Jane Austen's reputation...") Corrections and review.
2. Watch this video on subjects.
3. Ex 7, p508 and ex 9, p510. For each sentence in both exercises, do these 3 steps:
a. identify it as action or description;
b. identify the subject (watch for compounds; you may have more than one subject);
c. identify the verb (an action if the sentence is about action, a linking verb if it's about description).
Corrections and review.
4. Read the blog post called "Actives Speak Louder." I wrote this for copy writers, but it's still a good introduction to passive and active voice. Write a short summary of the post (50-100 words).
5. Now read the post called "Please, Ink Responsibly." This one points out situations where the passive voice is helpful. Write a short summary of the post (50-100 words, and be sure to include examples).
6. Read p.633-635 and do exercises 6 and 7. Corrections and review.
7. Revise the Facial Recognition essay.
8. No new essay this week and no LBGB, just a lot of me talking.
Have a great week!
