Last practice… tell whether each sentence is correct or incorrect. • She and her friends was at the fair last night. • INCORRECT: She and her friends were at the fair last night. • All of the people who listen to Justin Bieber are cool. • CORRECT • There is many questions about Gatsby, but we’ll clear it up. • INCORRECT: There are many questions about Gatsby, but we’ll clear it up. • All of the books, including John’s, is in that box. • INCORRECT: All of the books, including John’s, are in that box.

  3. Tip of the day: • Correct or incorrect?
