for Friday, November 2, 2012 (Saint) fi8

Class,

We are adding another dress-up! ~~~> www.asia

• Utilizing www.asia, you will create an adverbial clause.  It will give more information about a verb (also adjective or another adverb).  Adverbs answer questions like:  How?  When?  Where?  To what extent?

• Use this in the middle of a sentence and indicate by bolding & underlining just the first word (when, while, where, as, since, if, or although). Examples are listed below the FIX-IT.

Your homework is to write a three-paragraph essay on the Saint of your choice.
If you are 10 years old or younger you may use one source.
If you are older than 10 years old, please use at least two sources.
Remember to include your sources - if you use a website please include the entire URL address.

In each paragraph include one of ALL the Dress-ups (including this new: www.asia)
In each paragraph include one "VSS" - use the correct indication
#1 (Subject Opener) -- use the correct indication
Remember the T/C relationship
No BANNED words
Remember to use a blue highlight for your vocabulary words
Key Word Outline?  Of course!
Check-List? Of course!  And fill your checklist in with words, when appropriate!  :-)

Your Fix-It for Lesson 8 is below.

Week 8
Her grandmother ordered 8 great oysters to attach themself to the tail of the princess to properly betoken her high rank. But they hurt me so protested the little mermaid pride must suffer pain replied the old lady

Oh how gladly she would have shaken off all this pomp and lain aside the heavy wreath, the red flowers in her own garden would have suited her much better but she could not altar her circumstances.

Saying farewell she raised as lightly as a bubble to the surface of the water, the sun had just set as she rose her head above the waves and through the glimmering twilight beamed the evening star in all it’s beauty and the clouds were tinted with crimson and gold.

Looming nearby, she beheld a large ship which lied becalmed on the water for not a breeze stirred; the sailors sat idly on deck or among the rigging. She heard music and song on board, as darkness drew near one hundred colored lanterns were lighted.



EXAMPLES OF www.asia clause (when, while, where, as, since, if, or although)
The teacher starts the class when the bell rings.
He likes to read while the rest of the family watches television.
The children always play where the dandelions grow.
The baby slept as the family ate their dinner.
She has enjoyed the pool ever since she learned to swim.
I will ride my bike if my brother will ride with me.
Tommy likes to camp near the lake although he does not like mosquitos!
