Class Name Well Ordered Language 3 A/B
This week’s focus: WOL 3A Chapter 5 – Sensory Linking Verbs (SLV)
In preparation for Schole support class:
This lesson is about Sensory Linking Verbs (SLV). There are different kinds of linking verbs, but they have the same purpose of joining subjects to subject complements. You know how the Be Verbs function as linking verbs. Today you will learn different linking verbs:
Sensory Linking Verbs:
• Appear, become, feel, look, seem, smell, stay, sound, taste, grow, and remain
• Sensory Linking Verbs are mostly related to the five senses
• They function to join the subject and subject complement (Predicate nominative or adjective)
• One important point to remember is that linking verbs (am, is, are, was, etc) make absolute statements like A=B, while SLVs show a perceived connection such as A appears BWhen you analyze and diagram sentences that include SLVs, treat them exactly as you would Be Verbs used to connect subjects to predicate nominatives or predicate adjectives. This means they appear on the top line of your diagraming.
Zoom class is Nov 18 from 11:30-12

This week’s focus: Writing & Rhetoric 9 Lesson 5
In preparation for Schole support class: We will talk about description of a process. A process is a series of orderly steps required to achieve a result.
There are a couple types of processes: instructional—a list of steps in logical order—and informational or educational—meant to share information about or explain the stages of a process. It’s a series of steps but the difference is they are not intended to be followed.
Please do the Talk About It #1 and #2 for class. I want to hear your process (1) and would love to see what questions you would have for (2). Under Writing Time, please complete #3 on page 103.
ENRICHMENT – Those who desire more:
Complete writing time starting on page 99.
THIS MONTH’S ASSIGNMENT FOR SUBMISSION:
From Lesson 4: submit a short story. Use the rubric found on page 89 and make sure to include all the parts it’s asking for in the Rubric.
The story should have a beginning, middle and end. You will need to include the protagonist and antagonist. I highly recommend that you start with the end in mind. Eg. Family is camping, dad goes to catch fish for dinner, gets swept away in river, dies. You had the end in mind. Or end is he comes back with a net full of fish because when he got swept away by river (antagonist), he was eventually entangled in net and it turns into a happy ending. Also, make sure you use your thesaurus for interest. Do not use words like “very happy;” instead use “ecstatic,” etc.
Please include your name on your writing.
October submission is due mid-November: Description of Nature – rubric on page 64
DUE by End of November: Short Story – rubric on page 89
