In-class work for Monday

First, I want to bring your attention to the use of the passive voice in Language Awareness's bio of Erdrich: "'The Names of Women'...gives readers a glimpse at some of what was lost when Native American cultures were diluted, and then died out." Do you notice anything significant about this statement, especially in light of what you know about American history?

Here are instructions for the individual and group work for today.

Post your combined and broken up sentences in the favorite sentence file.
