Grammar: Capitalization and punctuation
- Write POPS with a couplet.
- Write a sentence for each word in the vocabulary list this week with an internal rhyme. For a change, you might want to write a story about your day, or week; or a fictional one about anything instead of writing individual sentences for each word. EXTRA credit will be given if you have a story to tell. HIGHLIGHT all the words in context and UNDERLINE the internal rhyme. Follow the rules of capialization and punctuation.
