Carnegie Notes from Nov.
28th through Dec. 2nd
This week we did more review. On Monday, I gave them a scrambled outline (both on PowerPoint and on a sheet of paper with an outline form on it). I had them organize the scrambled reasons, details, topic sentence (and sort out two irrelevant and overly broad details). After 45 minutes, we examined how they’d organized the reasons & details and looked at a correct outline on PowerPoint. Wednesday, we did grammar review, but we used no technology (practice worksheets on run-ons, fragments, and comma splices). Friday, they’re writing a paper (no teaching, no technology).
