We covered these complicated words today:
  • Independent Cause
  • Coordinating Conjunction
  • Semi colon (;) in compound sentence
Would you know what these meant if you had a pop quiz on these terms? Hint! Hint!
What do did you find confusing about today's class?

 
Comments appreciate: However, you must write your comment as a compound sentence!!!

 
Enjoy these videos from today's class.

    Mr. Buxton taught us about compound sentences and study techniques; Ms. Graham taught us about salinity in water.
