Nouns (Wed, 22/12/11)

Eleventh class


It was a night class. The energy was low. Everyone was starving.
OKAY! (wake up! *slaps face) it's presentation time. The first lucky group was Rahey's group. The group members were Pony, Hefa, Salina and of course Rahey.

They got Nouns and Articles as their topic. Here's what we all learned that day.

NOUN - a word used to name a person, animal and thing. Eg. singer, goat and bus.

There are a lot of branches to nouns : 

• Gender nouns
• Plural nouns
• Possessive nouns
• Proper nouns
• Common nouns
• Abstract nouns
• Countable nouns
• Uncountable nouns
• Collective nouns

You can read the full explanation, how to use them in sentences and examples from this link, http://www.writingcentre.uottawa.ca/hypergrammar/nouns.html

After all that learning, we all played a game prepared by the group. You know how grammar can be so...a lil fun was needed. 

The game was Snakes n Ladders, with some grammars in it, of course. We were divided into 2 groups and each round each group send a different representative, so it'll be fair. The game works like this. You throw the dice (which was handmade and huge!) and you pick 1 random question, grammar question to be exact. If you get it right, you get to move you piece but if you get it wrong, you don't  get to move. You can however, consult with you group but then you would only get to move less one spot than you dice mark. For example, your dice shows a five and you don't know the answer to the question so you consult with your group. When you get it right, you can only move 4 spots. Get it?? Good =D

So, anyway Group 2 (my group) WON!!! 

Bye ;p
