1) Continue studying all root words and meanings with their derivatives and their definitions.
2) Review all types of phrases: infinitives, gerunds, past participles, and present participles. These are all found on pages 53 through 72 in your text.
3) Write a cause and effect paragraph composed of at least 7 sentences. This type of paragraph gives reasons why some event has happened or perhaps why it will happen in the future. The paragraph may be imaginary or real in content.
Fulfill these basic requirements:
~ Immediate causes only should be the focus since you are only writing a paragraph.
~ Double space your writing or typing.
~ Use at least 3 different types of sentences in the paragraph: simple, compound, complex, and compound complex.
~ Use at least 2 derivative words in your use of vocabulary.
Possible Topics: Why a Team Won or Didn't Win a Championship/ Why Sam Got a Bad Grade on a Test/ Why Being Obedient to Authority is Proper/ Why Collecting ________ Is Fun (you get to fill in the blank)/ Why the Accident on the Interstate Happened, or Why Someone's Birthday Party Was a Success.
