  2. Grammar Review

  3. Parts of Speech Every word has a “type”. That type is called a PART OF SPEECH.

  4. NOUNS One Part of Speech is a NOUN. A Noun is a person, place or thing.

  5. Common and Proper Nouns Any old common person, place or thing is called a COMMON NOUN dog, country, girl

  6. Common and Proper Nouns The specific NAME of a noun is a PROPER NOUN and must be CAPITALIZED. Fido, America, Mary

  7. What are VERBS? Verbs are words that show action.

  8. What are VERBS? An action verb is a word that shows what someone or something (a noun) is doing.

  9. Adjectives Adjectives describe nouns. How does the nounlook, sound, smell, and feel?

  10. ADVERBS ADJECTIVES describe NOUNS -what a thing looks, feels, sounds, smells like ADVERBS describe VERBS -how an action is performed

  11. ADVERBS Adverbs answer “When?” “Where?” “How?” or “To what extent?” ~When? left yesterday, begin now ~Where? fell below, move up ~How? happily sang, danced badly

  12. ADVERBS ~To what extent? partly finished, eat completely Most adverbs are formed by adding -ly to an adjective. This makes recognizing an adverb fairly easy.

  13. PRONOUNS Pronouns are words that take the place of nouns. The noun a pronoun replaces is called the ANTECEDENT.

  14. PRONOUNS Personal pronouns refer to the person speaking, being spoken to, or being spoken about. Indefinite pronouns are vague as to number or person. Indefinite pronouns do not always have an antecedent.

  15. Writing Review

  16. The Sentence A complete sentence contains a noun, a verb, and completes a thought. In other words, a person, place, or thing doing something!

  17. The Sentence Simple subject- the one noun doing the action in the sentence. Just because it is a noun, doesn’t immediately make it the subject.

  18. The Sentence The simple predicate is the action the subject is doing.

  19. Agreement The subj and verb must AGREE. They must agree in NUMBER. SINGULAR/SINGULAR. PLURAL/PLURAL.

  20. Sentence Fragments If you leave out either the subject or the predicate, you have an incomplete sentence, or a SENTENCE FRAGMENT. SENTENCE FRAGMENT = BAD!

  21. Double Negatives Rules: Do not use two negative words in the same clause. Do not use but in its negative sense with another negative. Do not use barely, hardly, or scarcely with another negative.

  22. Paragraphs A paragraphis a group of sentences that tell one idea.

  23. Paragraph Structure Most paragraphs have a three-part structure— • introduction • body • conclusion

  24. Introduction: the first section of a paragraph; should include the topic sentence and any other sentences at the beginning of the paragraph that give background information

  25. Body: follows the introduction; discusses the controlling idea, using facts, arguments, analysis, examples, and other information.

  26. Conclusion: the final section; summarizes the connections between the information discussed in the body of the paragraph and the paragraph’s controlling idea.

  27. Paragraph Rules:  Indent the first word in a paragraph (start the first word of the paragraph a little to the right of the left-hand margin. Start a paragraph with a topic sentence, which states the main idea of that paragraph.

  28. Paragraph Rules: Any time you begin writing about a new idea, begin a new paragraph. Paragraphs answer questions about a certain topic.

  29. Topic Sentence A well-organized paragraph supports or develops a single controlling idea, which is expressed in a sentence called the topic sentence.

  30. Topic Sentence A topic sentence has several functions: it supports an essay’s thesis statement; it unifies the paragraph and directs the order of the sentences; and it advises the reader of the subject to be discussed.

  31. Concluding Sentences Paragraphs have a sentence at the end which summarizes the information presented.  This is the Concluding Sentence.  You can think of a Concluding Sentence as a sort of Topic Sentence in reverse.

  32. Essays ~A piece of writing focused on one topic, like a paragraph. ~Made up of multiple paragraphs. ~Also divided into Introduction, Body, and Conclusion. -Paragraph level instead of sentence.

  33. Essays An Introduction is a beginning paragraph which states the purpose and goals. The introduction is usually interesting and causes the reader to want to read on. Contains the Thesis Statement.

  34. Essays The Body develops the Thesis Statement and should be around 3 paragraphs long. Contains descriptions, examples, details, arguments, commentary on the Thesis Statement.

  35. Essays The Conclusion brings the essay to a close. Like a Concluding Sentence, no new info introduced, and must restate the Thesis Statement and summarize major points.

  36. Essays Thesis Sentence ~focus of entire essay ~all paragraphs and sentences must develop Thesis Statement ~write first to keep author on topic ~appears in Intro, usually the last sentence

  37. Essays Thesis Statement ~Includes the topic of the entire essay as well as the direction you are taking that topic

  38. Elements of LiteratureReview

  39. What is a Short Story? A short story is a work of fiction that is usually written in prose, often in narrative format.

  40. Elements SETTING The time and location in which a story takes place. For some stories the setting is very important, while for others it is not. 

  41. Elements PLOT The plot is the sequence of events in a story or play.  The plot is a planned, logical series of events having a beginning, middle, and end.  The short story usually has one plot so it can be read in one sitting. 

  42. Plot

  43. Plot Exposition- introduces characters and setting. These elements are presented at the beginning of the story.

  44. Plot Rising Action- the central part of a story during which various problems arise, leading up to the climax.

  45. Plot The Climax- the high point of the story, where a culmination of events create the peak of the conflict. The climax features the main conflict and struggle, and usually reveals any secrets or missing points in the story.

  46. Plot Falling Action- part of a story following the climax. This is the turning point of the story, leading up to the solution of the conflict.

  47. Plot Resolution- a series of events that follow the climax, and is the conclusion of the story. Conflicts are resolved, creating a release of tension and anxiety for the reader. Not all stories have a resolution.

  48. Elements CONFLICT Conflict is essential to plot.  It is the opposition of forces which ties one incident to another and makes the plot move.  Conflict is any form of opposition that faces the main character.

  49. Elements CONFLICT There are two types of conflict: 1)  External - A struggle with a force outside one's self. 2)  Internal - A struggle within one's self
