4. Weekly Write #6
Referring to Dallas, Ponyboy states, “It would be a miracle if Dallas could love anything. The fight for self-preservation had hardened him beyond caring.” How would you define self-preservation? Do you think a person could really be too hardened to love?

5. Subjects and Predicates
Notebook - page 43

6. Every complete sentence contains two parts: a subject and a predicate.
The subject is what (or whom) the sentence is about, while the predicate tells something about the subject.

7. Judy and her dog run on the beach every morning.

8. Judy and her dog run on the beach every morning.
First, find the verb and then make a question by placing ``who?'' or ``what?'' before it.
The answer is the subject, Judy and her dog.

9. Complete Subjects
A complete subject includes all of the words in the subject of a sentence.
Forest workers plant new trees.
This is the complete subject.

10. Complete Predicates
A complete predicate includes all of the words in the predicate of a sentence.
Forest workers plant new trees.
This is the complete predicate.

11. Compound Subjects and Predicates

12. Compound Subjects
A compound subject has two or more simple subjects that have the same predicate. They are joined by and, or, nor.
Trees and grass hold soil in place.
This is the compound subject.

13. Compound Predicates
A compound predicate has two or more simple predicates, or verbs, that have the same subject.
Rangers explore and protect the forest.
This is the compound predicate.

14. A Little Reminder… Your verb must agree with the noun in the subject.
Singular nouns = singular verb(s)
Plural nouns = plural verb(s)
Hint: They don’t have an (s)
Ex. Scientists observe and study the effects of erosion.

38. Genius Hour
Step 1 - Read your essay and go through the checklist to check your work (Self Edit). As you are going through your essay, initial the box where there are no errors. If there is an error, highlight it in the actual essay. You will go back and fix it later. (10 minutes)
Step 2 - Read your peer’s essay without making corrections. You are simply reading to be interested in their topic. (5 minutes)
Step 3 - Use the checklist to edit your peer’s essay (Peer Edit). Be honest. Use a highlighter to mark where the person made an error. For instance, if she or he used first or second person (I, me, we, you), then you will highlight it and put an X on the place where you would put your initials if there were no errors. (10 minutes)
Step 4 - Peers will talk and collaborate with each other by sharing what they found in each other’s essays. (5 minutes)
Step 5 - Revise and Edit. Work independently to make corrections to your essay. (10 minutes)
