Forty-Seventh Class Period: Nonfiction Test Preparation

Devotion: "The Lost Coin" (Luke 15)

Mr. Stone reviewed the six parts of the nonfiction test:

1) author-title (matching)

2) title-genre (matching)

3) literary terms (matching)

4) career writing (short answer)

5) identifying quotes (matching)

6) classifying common nonfiction genres (Fill in the blanks in a table)

Students received their graded comma retests, their first comma tests (previously viewed) , and their short story unit tests (previously viewed) to analyze the types of questions for which the students need to study more or differently.

The tests were recollected.

Students whose scores on the comma retests were higher than the first test will have their higher score replace their previous score.

Mr. Stone discussed the basic pattern of humor (preparation, anticipation, and punch line) and viewed a video clip from Ellen.

Homework: Finish preparing for the nonfiction test.
