Rattlebone

AGENDA:

Warm-up Exercise

Their, There and They’re


Their- Possessive, shows ownership
Ex: Their car broke so they had to take the bus.

There- Shows location
Ex: I couldn’t find my phone and it was over there the whole time!

They’re- Contraction of “they” and “are”
Ex: I met all of my new co-workers, they’re all very nice.

Now write a sentence for each (Their, There and They’re) to show you understand how to use them correctly. Post your sentences as a comment to this post.

Here is a list of Rattlebone Vocab. Make sure you keep a list somewhere with all the words on it. There will be a test on these words eventually

Capricious (pg. 13): Erratic or obsolete

Corporal-punishment (pg. 17): Physical punishment, inflicted on the body of one convicted of a crime: formerly included the death penalty
