12/22 - In Which Jabba The Hutt Does Yoga - Sarah H

A miracle occurred in class today: Mr. Rivers announced that we will podcast after the break instead of this week. This came as a relief to everyone because we each probably had at least four tests just today, probably five. We will instead be podcasting the first week of January.
Mr. Rivers introduced us to NoRedInk, a website created to help us test and practice our grammar skills. The website asks you about your interests and "tailors" the sentences to those interests. However, this made for some interesting sentences. For example (this picture was taken before the sentence was corrected):

Although it made for some weird sentences, it wasn't bad. Apparently we did pretty well, save for the active/passive voice category. According to Rivers, 2% of people in both classes were proficient in active and passive voice. But its ok, we'll work on it.

With the last part of class, we watched a Christmas episode of The Office. I have never seen The Office before, but I looked it up and i think it's Christmas Party S2 Ep10. We are going to finish and  analyze theme in the episode tomorrow.
