Class began with a review of the dash as a useful punctuation device. We also reviewed the hyphen. Students analyzed the use of the dash in "Being Country" and completed a worksheet (get one from Mr. Zartler) on the dash and hyphen.
Students then revised one of their previous writing drafts by adding the use of at least two em-dashes.
Students should read the story "American Dreamer by Bharati Mukherejee on pages 114-119 of the Thomsen reader for next class.
