Introduction to Nonfiction and Comma Pretest

Devotional: David Stone's "The First Day of Advent on a Bus"

The class read the two page introduction to nonfiction in their textbook (630-631) and Mr. Stone gave some additional introductory comments.

Mr. Stone reminded students to review the reading check questions and the questions at the end of the passage in preparation for a quiz over the passage. He encouraged them to read the piece twice since it is only four pages long.

Pretest: Students completed a pretest over comma usage and rules (principles).

Students who finished their pretest early were able to begin reading their homework.

Once all the students were finished with the pretest, the class began correcting them.

Homework: Read Sally Ride's "Single Room, Earth View" (636-640).
