On Monday, we learned:

On Monday we covered the following Questions:
What does it mean to be effective writer? What do good grammar skills allow both a good reader and writer to do?
7
Key Understandings Literary techniques are used to heighten interest, appeal to an audience, and effectively communicate a message. Authors use conventions of written language to communicate clearly and effectively. Reciprocal pronoun - a pronoun expressing a mutual relationship (e.g., each other and one another). “Each other” is used when the group consists of just two people, animals, or things. (e.g., The man and the woman gave each other a gift.) “One another” is used when the group consists of more than two people, animals, or things. (e.g., The students work with one another in the classroom.) This Instructional Routine partially assesses Performance Indicator: “Use the writing process and conventions of language to write an engaging story using a range of literary strategies and devices to enhance the plot.”

Guiding Question for today
How can you apply more details and depth to your writing? What do good grammar skills allow both an effective reader and writer to do?

Vocabulary Antecedent Reciprocal pronoun Revise
10
Antecedent What Is an Antecedent? (with Examples)
An antecedent is the word (or words) that a pronoun refers to. The word antecedent means to go before in Latin. It gets its name from the idea that a pronoun refers to something previously mentioned in the sentence. Look at this example: When you see the professor, please tell him I'll be 10 minutes late this evening. (In this example, the antecedent is professor. It is the word that the pronoun him refers to. The word professor comes before the pronoun him. )
11
Look at these examples:
Our two dogs and your cat love one another. (Here, the antecedent of one another is our two dogs and your cat, which is three things.)They love one another. (Here, the antecedent of one another is they, which we know represents three things.)
12
Antecedent Typically, the antecedent of a pronoun is a noun or a noun phrase. Despite the name, an antecedent does not always come before its pronoun. Look at this example: When you see him, please tell the professor I'll be 10 minutes late this evening. (In this example, the antecedent is still professor even though it comes after its pronoun.)
13
Antecedent Note: If your readers pick you up for using the wrong reciprocal pronoun, then you have some world-class grammar pedants on your hands. Each Other's Not Each Others' The pronouns each other and one another are singular entities (despite having plural antecedents). Therefore, when showing possession, the apostrophe comes before the s. This is a 100% rule.
14
What Are Reciprocal Pronouns? (with Examples)
A reciprocal pronoun expresses a mutual action or relationship. In English, the reciprocal pronouns are: Each other One another Examples of Reciprocal Pronouns Here are some examples of reciprocal pronouns: Jack and Jill hate each other. (Note: Jack hates Jill, and Jill hates Jack. The action is reciprocated.) The crayfish starting attacking one another. The team members played their hearts out for one another. They gave each other presents.
15
What Are Reciprocal Pronouns? (with Examples)
Have you seen each other's solution? (Note: Each other is treated as singular. Therefore, the possessive apostrophe is placed before the s.) The competitors were deliberately blocking one another's view to gain an advantage. (Note: One another is treated as singular. Therefore, the possessive apostrophe is placed before the s.) Each Other or One Another? Here's the quick answer: If the antecedent is two things, use each other. If it's more than two, use one another.
16
Reciprocal Pronoun Here's a longer explanation:
A reciprocal pronoun is used when at least one thing reciprocates another's action (i.e., does the same thing back). As a result, the antecedent of a reciprocal pronoun (i.e., what it refers back to) is always something plural. For example: Our dog and cat love each other. (Here, the antecedent of each other is our dog and cat, which is plural.)They love each other. (Here, the antecedent of each other is they, which is plural. In this example, they refers to our dog and cat.) When the antecedent is two things (like in both examples above), use each other as the reciprocal pronoun. However, when the antecedent is three or more things, use one another.
17
Reciprocal Pronoun Each other’s
Do you two admire each other's courage? (Note: Each other is treated as singular. Therefore, the possessive apostrophe is placed before the s.) Do you three admire one another's courage? (Note: One another is treated as singular. Therefore, the possessive apostrophe is placed before the s.)

Write the date and record a definitions for antecedent and reciprocal pronouns with examples of each in the Edit and Grammar section of the Learner’s Notebook: In your own words: What are reciprocal pronouns?
21
Objective: Students revise drafts of engaging stories by adding details.
The Importance of revising drafts of writing: During revision: focus is on the content of the writing piece changing, adding, or deleting words, phrases or sentences to clarify and/or enhance meaning. Revision is the key to effective writing.
22
Students revise drafts of engaging stories by adding details.
What’s the difference between having your car washed and having it detailed? This concept also applies to writing. Adding details makes writing more interesting and engaging. Show, don’t tell.
