Today we started class with our punctual piece. We completed a few more vocabulary words looking at two new roots. Here's the definitions if you missed:
Dia (Greek) = across
diameter--(noun) the length of a straight line through the center of an object
dialogue--(noun) a conversation between two or more people
dialect--(noun) a regional variety of language distinguished by features of vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation
diatribe--(noun) a bitter and abusive speech or writing
Dom (Latin) = rule
predominant--(adj) being most evident or apparent; leading
dominion--(noun) an area ruled or controlled
domineering--(adj) forcing others to obey
domain--(noun) a field or area over which control is exercised; a sphere of activity, concern, or function
Then we went to the writing lab. You finished up Peer Review, if you didn't last time. You typed up your PowerPoint Presentation and saved it on my jump drive. Then you had time to work on your some of your Your Choice Genres.
For Friday:
1. Finish up Your Choice Genres #1 and #2
2. Get an outside reading book!
