Agenda Take a minute  blog  corrections. Testing Strategies #1 NaPoWriMo Day 27 NaPoWriMo Submissions HW: Read and write a poem a day! Today, I was chosen against my will, so I decided to make someone else suffer with me. I chose Leslie to do the blog with me. We started the day by walking in the class, putting our chairs down. After,    Ms. Nakada started telling us how to prep for our testing days such as: bring a charged Chromebook, eat something healthy before you come to school, take notes, study and more. After she was done explaining, she passed out a yellow paper with poems on it, and she had Isabella read and Adrian read too. After Ms. Nakada left, Mr. Kamm took over. Last, we packed up, waited for the bell to ring, and then we left off to second period.                           RIP Keyboard Cat

Then, Jaiden W. did the blog and picked me. Then, we did our grammar and quote. The grammar was hyperbole (an exaggeration), idiom (a common non-literal saying), and onomatopeia (word that mimic the sound). Then, we talked about the quote: "Water does not resist. Water flows.
