Today we reread “The Jacket” by Gary Soto with the purpose of analyzing the figurative language used. We focused mainly on similes, metaphors, and personification. 

We also began taking notes on Adverbs and did some practice with them. 

Personal Narrative Rough Drafts were due today. We began the Peer Editing process at the end of class, which will continue through Thursday.
