Today in class we learned about the connotation of how and when to use the words (Good and Well) and also how to use (You -> Who).
Difference between Good and Well
- Good
- Something adj.
- Nouns
- Well
- Some action adverb
- Verb
- Adjectives
When using the words You, the writer can come off as very vague. If a writer wants to become more specific with who the audience is they can do so by replacing the “you” in the sentence with more specific words to be more precise.
Example sentences: “You can't always get what you want”
A person can't always get what they want.
Students can't always get As.
Students cannot always get what they want in school.
Students can't always get the amount of sleep they want
No one can always get what they desire.
Llewelyn Moss can not always get what he wants.
After the lesson we worked on the paragraphs on theme that are due on thursday the 19th of october. We also received our first book that will be reading in class Ready Player One. If you need a book ask Mr. Rivers
So in addition to being late, this blog post lacks some of the crucial digestion that your writing should reflect. This looks like a pretty direct copy/paste of your notes from that day, so consider how your blog post can be a refinement of your class notes. Use the post to show your digestion of the information and not just a dump of it. I like the breakup of information on the page, and you’ve included good examples from our discussions, but this lacks some of the cohesion of a deliberate blog post. This is also missing the other half of the assignment, in which you extend the information out to the world beyond our classroom.
