e.g. what words do you need to be highlighting if you are trying to decide whether something is compound or complex?
e.g. what's the difference between a semi colon and a comma?
e.g what are the four charateristics of both compound and complex sentences?
e.g. how can you learn from the mistakes you made in your worksheets?
You are expected to spend about 10 mins every night next week practicing these exercises and playing these games below.

Mr. Buxton can you put something on the blog about clauses. Something we can practice on.
first exercise is on phrases and clauses; also, look at last Thursday's post on this topic
Mr. Buxton,
When I finish my skit should I bold the compound, complex ect. sentences? I know we need to do that for our vocabulary words. Thank You!
yes catie you have to do that
Is our power plan write up due tomorrow??
kennedy- All of these exercises helped me a lot, and I know on Friday I will be ready for the test. I also just watched the movie on the top of your page and that helps me a lot too.

+1 Matigan for being observant!
Mr.Buxton i really dont get what a predicate is can you explain that to me and will it be included in the test? :)
Mr. Buxton lots of these excersises confused me it showed me i need extra practice!
The video content was what we did last year: Jamestown!! I've noticed lots of words have common latin roots, for example, mem: memento, memo, memory, member, remember, memorize, COOL!!
on 1 of the websites they forgot to put in commas before the FANBOYS!AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!! Also, on one of them, there was something about complete subjects and complete predicates that we have not gone over in class, but I still did it and got them all right! WOOOHHHHOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!:)
mr buxton did i miss any important notes today or yesterday?
Do we have to do our power plans in the 3 colors???
