January 31, 2012 Period 3

Today, we had the AMAZING experience of skyping with Cory Doctorow, author of Little Brother. The discussion was engaging, eye-opening, and fantastic! After skyping with him, we returned to class to discuss what we thought of the experience. Then, we continued to grammar with sentence parts and phrases:

                   prep. phrase  prep. phrase

carla looked (at herself) (in the mirror) and recited the poem fire and ice

   S         v               op                     op                  v               do           app

                                                                   prep. ph.                                                prep. 

we saw a midsummer nights dream (at the buell theater) after we saw the play (at ahs)

S     v                           do                                           op                     s     v      do         op

After that, we were given the rest of the time to work on our CSAP packet or reading Little Brother.
