COLLEGE ENGLISH

Today I tried to combine elements of yesterday and tomorrow's black day class, because I am not going to be here on Friday.....we did some more work on developing voice in our writing...we did some more creative voice activities...I collected the half page of "voice" writing you were asked to do today....

We went over some other strategies to incorporate more voice into your writing...avoiding cliches, using precise verbs and adjectives, etc....

I will be posting the sub plan for Friday on the blog as well if there are any questions!
