Fix Its: 

  • Introduce the #3 “-ly” adverb opener. Now that students know this opener, the “-ly” adverb dress-up should be underlined only if it is in the sentence, not the first word.  
  • Have you ever heard the term antecedent? It means “to come before.” When you use pronouns (he, she, it), it needs to be clear what noun you are referring to that came before. If it is not clear, you had better not use the pronoun. Watch for that this week! It is an advanced concept.  
  • Watch for compound sentences where two main clauses are connected with a coordinating conjunction. A comma is needed. See Comma Rule #9 on page A-11 in the Appendix: MC, cc MC.
