Music is fine... Just stay off your phone.

We will be working more with identifying passive construction and then assessing its impact. After analyzing the writing and its construction, you will work on editing to active construction or evaluating if it is better left in passive construction.

I've starred what you need to turn in.

1. Check your ability to identify passive or active form:
Passive or Active?
Review and do exercises.

2. Identify, assess, revise...

3. Please read through this page and do exercises 1-4 that are embedded within the page.

Passive v. Active Voice Instruction and Exercises

4. Review this page and do the exercises embedded within the page.
Passive Construction 

Turn in*****

5. When you are done, please write a paragraph (new normal), which would resemble a "letter to Santa". No letter form.. content the same. Focus specifically on writing on active voice. After you are done with your writing sample, circle the active verbs in each sentence. Turn this in by the end of the hour.*****
