Alison Robichaud (TpT Seller)
Overall a great powerpoint, and one I didn't have to make up! There was one slide I had to fix because of a verb- the verb was "was" which is technically a linking verb linking a subject to a predicate noun (I think that's what it was; I don't have the powerpoint in front of me). On the definition slide, there was a S/V agreement error, but again, easily fixed. Cute powerpoint and my kids loved the art!

Teacher in the Rye (TpT Seller)
Mrs. V., I did upload the wrong essay organizer for The Pearl. I would love to send you the correct one (a full outline guiding the students through the writing process, including rubric). My email is teachintherye@gmail.com. I will gladly send you the new one if you send me a quick email. I apologize for the other one you downloaded--I did not intend to put that one up!

What is the difference between this lesson, "Ransom of Red Chief Literary Elements" and the other one you have posted entitled "Ransom of Red Chief Literary Terms"?
March 29, 2012
Shopgirl Mrs V (TpT Seller)
"The Ransom of Red Chief" Literary Elements is a chart - has the lit elements plus a key. Students look for an examples of each type. I usually pair or group students for this.
The other is a powerpoint with the terms and answers to review with students. I've updated the link. Thank you for bringing this up. I have been wanting to update items.

royweiss re: Character Chart for The Outsiders
Sounds like a great idea to help the kids keep organized. Do you have a sample to post? Do you provide a completed organizer for the teacher to use as a reference?
January 9, 2011
Shopgirl Mrs V (TpT Seller)
I don't have one, but students just finished this item, and I think I will scan one and post it or create another. I know it will be helpful. I've been wanting to update items. SO thanks for the suggestion.

Hi,
I recently purchased your worksheet for "Determining Mood" for the Tell Tale Heart. Would you have an "answer key" or the examples that you use with the students for this worksheet? Thank you.

Thanks let me know and you've got it. I think it is my best. Could you rate it again please? One friend told me I am being a little liberal with a couple of the synecdoche.
Unfortunately I asked Paul to help me get in touch with everyone who has bought it and give them the same offer, but he said that was impossible! Anyway thanks again.

Ms V:
I should listened to you months ago on The Outsiders Figurative language. I think somehow an old file got downloaded. I have redone it and I think it is a clean, quality product. Also please feel free to choose any of my other products for free. If you need the Miracle Worker or something else let me know. Sorry again.
