We made some progress on two fronts today. First I feel that our understanding of agreement errors has turned a corner. By going through the ten sentences and seeing a correct example juxtaposed against an incorrect example, we were able to have a better sense of what the agreement problems were in each sentence. Then, taking the time to circle the key words that we need to pay attention to as we examine each sentence also undoubtedly helped our comprehension. I think you became more confident as you went down the list.
The other area where there was some improvement was in our presentations. Do we still have a bit to go? Absolutely. Yet there were signs of life and personality (Ben Rose and Rachel Snyder) There were multiple quotes used for evidence (Rachel Lee, Greyson Papp, and Jordan Vargo). Now with only a couple groups to go, perhaps one group will be able to pull it all together and offer that presentation that combines substance and style splendidly.
We will be starting our new material tomorrow. I hope you like nonfiction because that is where our focus will be. More coming tomorrow.
See you then.
