For Tonight Just Do The Back Of The Commas Sheet "Using Commas E."

As silly as the Motown songs were, I truly believe that when we go over the final, first thing tomorrow morning, you will understand where you made your mistakes on the figurative language section of the test.

Next week, we will have a test on similes, metaphors, personification, hyperboles, alliteration, and idioms. In addition, study your independent and dependent clauses and complex sentences, compound sentences, and compound/complex sentences, and prepositional phrases.

Any essays need to be checked for the credit union contest?

Marks close soon. Don't wait to work your hardest! Keep doing your homework.
