Thank you for your fine writing efforts this week!  We analyzed the expository papers and timeshared the narrative writing.  Both were filed in the portfolios.

We are beginning an indepth review of PRONOUNS, and I believe some of you will be surprised to know that it is never correct to use expressions such as "between you and I."  As a prelude to the correct use of this devilish part of speech (worse than the verbs lie and lay), please read the Key Concepts in Chapter 23, WAG book, page 506.  Pay close attention to the charts defining subject, object, and possessive pronouns. Do the Chapter Review, on 514, exercises 5-9 only.
