English 8

Welcome back to your second week at RSS!

Today, we took notes on verbs (the definition of verbs, active/passive voices, and verb tenses). I also gave you more time to work on your Short Story Introductions and showed you an example. We then looked an Edgar Allen Poe Prezi and talked a bit about his life; we also watched a video based on his poem "The Raven". We proceeded to go over the questions for "Tell-Tale Heart". We also read the story "The Street that got Mislaid" and completed questions respectively.
