Due: Wed

Book clubs: your final discuss will be tomorrow. Make sure you have an interesting/controversial discussion topic. 

I will not insist that Glogs are ready for tomorrow. Teams will be  given sometime in class tomorrow putting finishing touches on presentations and organizing an interesting delivery of the glog. 

You all worked well today...  :-) -  1 step on the ladder!

There is NO password.

Mr.Buxton, never is a portmanteau word. It is a combination of not and ever. Anisha told me, but she is using my account.

Can you tell me on the social studies google docs what the username and password please

Maya S. said...

Devastation, corruption, and much, much more. The Great Depression of the 1930' caused much craze about the piling debt in the world of debt.

Anisha's paragraph

han- u mean the midnight magic then yes

Han said...

Wow....

Maddy Z said...

It captures everything, from the joy of the characters to the sway of the chandelier, but what really makes you fall in love with this suspenseful novel are the obstacles that come in each character’s way.

This sentence is too long! Can anyone help me split it up so that it still makes sense?

Han said...

How about....

It captures everything, from the joy of the characters to the sway of the chadelier. You will fall in love with this suspenseful novel
for obstacles that come in each character's way.

Not sure... but how about that?

Unknown said...

save them on hard drive , then upload

Maya - used the word debt twice... also craze does not fit.

typo 10.6


avoid the 'it' - use the author's name

get rid of you - change to 'readers' - sentence is good.. just a compound with an opening phrase

Riya D. said...

Mr.Buxton do we get graded on the paragraph on Midnight Magic.

Camille B. said...

do we work on the paragraph together

Maddy Z said...

Okay! Thanks Han and Mr. Buxton...

Camille B. said...

DO WE GET WORK TOGETHER ON THE PARAGRAPH!

Sabine said...

does anyone know for the midnight magic paragraph, do we write the paragraph in pairs, or do we just get notes as pairs and write the paragraphs ourselves?

Maddy Z said...

Notes as pairs and write by yourself...

Maya S. said...

I think you write it by yourself.
Mr. Buxton- That was Anisha's sentence, but I am surprised how we didn't notice that we used debt twice.

Unknown said...

no camille..

berrysweetπ said...

That was my paragraph, Mr.Buxton.
I meant for the second one to be money. I don't know what to put for ''craze". I was struggling with it, so i put craze. What word would fit there?

Maya S. said...

For the mics. uses of commas, do you use commas for a nonessential clause or for an essential clause?

Maddy Z said...

NON-essential, Maya.

Sabine said...

do we have to do all 4 character our person has a problem with? can i only do 3?

Maya S. said...

Thanks Maddy!

Maddy Z said...

I'm not sure, Sabine, I wondering the same thing.

Harrisen(M) said...

Yes Maddy and Sabine

Harrisen(M) said...

Maddy Z said...

berrysweetπ said...

I am dividing my thing into 2 + (probably 3) paragraphs, because only two of my problems really go together.

Han said...
