"Thank You, Ma'm"

For this week's response, please evaluate "Thank You , Ma'm."

To evaluate means to judge, but just saying, "It was good," or something similar, is not good enough. To get full credit, you must tell me why you judge it the way you do with specific details. Also, include some of our vocabulary, as in, "I think that the protagonist is..." or "I think the conflict..." Be sure to focus on evaluating - judging - the protagonist or the conflict, if you use these examples, and explaining why you judge them the way you do. (These are examples - feel free to use them or to come up with your own way to use our word work).

Practice

Hello! This will be where you'll practice posting a comment (which is how you'll submit your homework). Remember, homework starts the week of Monday, September 27th, so now is the time.

Use this time to recommend a book (other than the one you put on your Interest Inventory) to your fellow classmates.

Click on the link under this post that tells you how many comments there are. Then type the book recommendation in the comment box. Use the pull-down menu just below it and select "Name/URL." Type your name (first and last) in the "Name" box, and leave the "URL" box blank. Click continue, then follow the directions to complete the post. You'll know your post went through when you see a yellow box that says something like, "You comment has been submitted for approval." Just know, the comment won't actually appear until I approve it. So check back again tomorrow to make sure your comment posted!

Thank you!

Mrs. Puccio
