1. Complete the practice sheet on Punctuating Dialogue (side 1) and Using Specific Verbs (side 2).
2. Check to make sure you have incorporated ALL FCA's into your Personal Narratives. Here they are (again);
FCA #1: Paper focuses on a specific, personal experience or event (this means you should also have specific details about the event)
FCA#2: Contains dialogue
FCA#3: Contains at least 4 active verbs (hint: look for linking or state-of-being verbs and CHANGE THEM. These are the boring verbs like: is, are, was, were, has, have, had, went, gone)

ReplyDeleteYah and how do we change "are" when you say for example "we are now in the playoffs" ???
ReplyDeleteyou could be like "my team is thrilled to now be in the playoffs" or something like that
