I.M.A.G.E. Students and Moms,
This week we expanded the use of Definition as a method of coming up with something to say under the Canon of Invention. Detailed explanations and usage of our new technique are incorporated into Homework-Part 1, attached.
Today we reviewed vague verbs and practiced converting them to vigorous action verbs. The students are seeing their essays transform before their eyes with the application of a few problem-solving devices that turn challenges into solutions. Class participation is excellent. You would be proud.
A girls-against-the boys spelling challenge ended in favor of the girls.
Next week the focus will be on LTW terms... in your own words, so study-up, guys.
This week's homework explanation is lengthy, but the homework is
minimal as a courtesy to those participating in the trip to Thomas Edison's home on Monday.
As always, I love working with your children... very special.
Please call with any questions.
