English 1 -- Today in class, students created a Parts of Speech Cheat Sheet from the video notesheet that was completed last class.  Students will be able to use this Cheat Sheet to help them with numerous activities throughout the semester.  Next, students used nursery rhymes to practice identifying the parts of speech in sentences, and they even created their own nursery rhymes modeled after the ones they dissected.
