Today we will briefly review indirect objects, direct objects, predicate nominatives, predicate adjectives, prepositional phrases and how do diagram sentences with them! Don't forget that there is a sentence diagramming video posted right before vacation.
There is a quiz on Friday where you will be given the diagrams for four sentences and have to properly fill in the blanks, and then you will be given three sentence for which you have to draw the diagram completely by yourself.
Afterwards, we will introduce the next unit. You should have begun reviewing the book talk videos on your own (they are below). If you haven't finished, do so tonight. We will pick groups tomorrow.
You need to have a group (within your class) of at least 3-4 people. You need to decide the level of book you want to read as a group, so you all have to pick the same level.
The level of book you read (standard, college prep., or honors) does not necessarily have to be the level of essay you write.
Homework:
Watch book talk videos if you haven't already.
You need to pick your group by tomorrow in class, and book level.
Books need to be chosen by Friday, signed out or acquired by Monday (or lunch detention)

Check out some of the videos below!
So...I just made a bunch of little book talk videos. Check them out if any of them seem interesting. You will have to choose one of these (be sure to check the level: Honors, College Prep., or Standard) by Friday (or find your own title). You will also have to choose your group by Friday.
At the beginning of this List is an overview of the unit...you might want to check it out first!
