Tuesday, 10/3: Vocabulary, CWP

* Pray

* Grammar: Short lesson in agreement.
Freshman year covered the eight parts of speech (noun, pronoun, verb, adjective, adverb, preposition, conjunction, and interjections), sentence fragments, run-on sentences, and basic subject-verb agreement. If you didn't study those things, please review Part XI and the first three sections of part V (19-21). This year picks up in pronoun antecedent agreement (section 22, pg. 271 ff.) and continues on from there (23, 24,...28).

1. Read Part V, Section 22-22a (pages 271-273).
2. Compose four sentences using indefinite pronouns (two singular, two plural examples).
