Welcome to English 10!  I'm super excited and looking forward to a great semester of reading, writing and exploring with you.  Today will be a mix of experimenting with some of the resources and work that we are going to do and getting some of the housekeeping stuff taken care of.  You should bookmark the following sites:

1.  This web page
2.  www.bigiqkids.com - your username is [email protected] and your password is caroline.  Then you need to find your name.  This week's list is in your short stories word list.  Play some games and learn some new words.  These will be on your unit exam!
3. I sent an email with our google classroom.  Please bookmark this site.  It will be worthwhile to check in frequently.

On this website you will find the course outline (which we will go over today) and the readings and assignments needed for this class.

We will start class today guessing some puns.

We will start our grammar gambit today looking at complete and incomplete sentences.

We will get started with a descriptive writing activity looking at appealing to the 5 senses and then debrief with a discussion about what is difficult about describing something.

We will cover a lot in our two hours today.  Unfortunately, I can't put the grammar information on our web page.  If you missed today, practice the vocabulary and take a shot at writing a descriptive paragraph about the appeal of something to one of your senses.
