You must wait until then to open the exam. Do not try to get extra time by opening the link before your scheduled time. If you do, I will find out, and you will receive both a zero and a referral to the administration.

Here is the handout for Conjunctive Adverbs.  Here you may find the table I showed you in class. We should have this table completed by the end of tomorrow's class.

If you would like to have this table as a separate file (pdf, word or image), please let me know.]]> 2021-12-02 22:14:31 UTC https://padlet.com/maestroinglesintermedia/english9/wish/1926173602 maestroinglesintermedia https://padlet.com/maestroinglesintermedia/english9/wish/1926608113 2021-12-03 03:41:30 UTC https://padlet.com/maestroinglesintermedia/english9/wish/1926608113 maestroinglesintermedia https://padlet.com/maestroinglesintermedia/english9/wish/1929883628 IMPORTANT: You DO NOT HAVE to print this. But if you do, please make sure you bring it to class next week. We will use it a lot. As you can see, it has lots of examples on how to use the conjunctive adverbs covered in class. PLEASE STUDY THIS TABLE.]]> 2021-12-05 20:28:43 UTC https://padlet.com/maestroinglesintermedia/english9/wish/1929883628 maestroinglesintermedia https://padlet.com/maestroinglesintermedia/english9/wish/1929904935 Good afternoon,

I have received some questions regarding tomorrow's exercise.  

What do you need to know?  
You should know how to write the conjunctive adverbs discussed in class.  You do not need to memorize the definition or synonyms.  In fact, even if you don't memorize the categories (contrast, time, comparison, concession, et al), you can still do very well.  Again, all you need to know if how to write these words.

Will this be just a dictation?  
I rarely do typical dictations where students just recite from memory.  I like to combine dictation with other tasks.  Tomorrow will not be the exception.  There are two parts.

The first part is a typical dictation.  This has 25 words.

The second part requires you to correct (i.e., edit) someone else's work. Here you will find conjunctive adverbs that need some work. Your job is to fix them. You should know how to do that if you studied for the dictation. This part should be easy-peasy!

If you have any questions, please email me at a_casiano@live.com, as the gmail.com continues to be problematic.

God bless you,
Mr. A.
