Week 4. Module 1 & 2 Writing Activity

In your writing journal, begin to practice building sentences with adjective and adverbial clauses. As in Unit 3, you may find it helpful to be observing a scene while you compose sentences. Using the lists associated with each of these types of clauses, write at least three (3) sentences including adjective clauses and three (3) sentences including adverbial clauses. Underline the adjective and adverbial clauses. Consider their function in both as a modifier and an aspect of your writing style

Phrases-->

1. He was the person who killed the chicken.
2. We are the students whom are doing a course from coursera
3. It is the car which they were driven to full speed
4. I will not speak unless you start first
5. I am doing this course because I thing it is fine
6. before I go to do the exam, I need to study

In your journal, continue your sentence practice with noun and verb phrases. Write at least one of each of the noun phrases discussed in the unit (prepositional phrase, absolute phrase, and appositive phrase) and at least two of each of the verb phrases (infinitive phrase and participial phrase). You will, therefore, write at least seven sentences for this journal activity. As in the first assignment, underline the phrase in each sentence and consider its function in both as a modifier and an aspect of your writing style.

Phrases-->

1. prepositional phrase --> Be careful around you, because maybe somebody observe you.
   
2. absolute phrase --> David flying over himself
   
3. appositive phrase --> Me, a young computer expert who lives in Granada, is doing a course from Coursera.
   
4. infinitive phrase (2)-->
1. Very much people solicit more free time to stay with your daughter when she is a baby.
2. to be or not to be. That is the question.
   
5. participial phrase (2)-->
1. Playing with my daughter made me to discover the feeling of freedom.
2. Ended the film, we returned to our house.
   

Week 3. Module 1 & 2 Writing Activity

Observe a scene, preferably in a crowded, busy, or public place. List the activities that you see occurring and the actors (those doing the activity). Write 5-6 sentences that use your observation list and underline the subjects of your sentences. Write a few sentences experimenting with using different types of pronouns from the tables in Unit 3.  You will want to keep all of these sentences at hand as you do the writing activities for this unit. 

Activities and actors --> teaching (professor), learning (pupils), driving (driver).

Sentences -->

1. The professor is teaching some technical lessons.
2. Pupils are learning the lesson
3. Learning and understanding are important when you are studing .

5. Who is the most important element into the class: the professor or the pupil?
6. Whose is that english book?
7. don't disturb your classmate! ("understood” subject - You)

In your journal, continue your observation list of the scene you observed for Unit 3, Journal Assignment 1 by noting several vivid action verbs. Revise some of your sentences using action verbs and/or write 2-3 new sentences with action verbs. Try not to use any of the forms of “to be” (is, are, was, etc.).  Underline the action verbs in your sentences. Again, you will want to keep all of these sentences at hand as you do the peer reviewed writing at the end of the unit.
