  4. Audrey, use the links on the left of the page. Grammar ninja is just for fun. Definitely practice the commas and watch the video if you get the chance.
    Typos are just there to see if you are paying attention! :-)

  22. Mr. Buxton,
    Can I record my notes in a notebook for state report? On the character sketch could I do a famous long-distance runner who lived his whole life in Oregon? Long-distance running is one of Oregon's top 3 sports. The runner had an impact.

  28. Mr. B,
    It seems like Encyclopedia Britannica
    is NOT working for anyone. When I started typing latin for the id part, it showed a suggestion and it was latinhawks. Should we try that instead with the same password?
