Summary:
Today we walked into Ms. Matthews class and in our way to the room we grabbed the papers that we needed for our notebooks. After that we pasted the papers in our notebooks and started a new section on our notebooks called "Writing Terms" and the three terms were Diction, Tone, and Voice. Then we went over "Informal vs. Formal Language" worksheet which explains how to write a formal academic essay. After that Jordan read her blog entery. Finally we did our "Say/Mean/Matter" worksheet on "Cannery Row" and had to write down at least two quotes on the worksheet before we went to our next period.
