I met up with Barrak outside of Strozier and we discussed pronouns. We began by defining the difference between subject pronouns, object pronouns, possessive pronouns, and pronoun adjectives. After a basic understanding of the differences between them, why their used, and some hints for guessing which one to use, I created several fill in the blank sentences. For example I would write something like, "Bob and Tom are nice. ____ make me smile," and then ask Barrak which pronoun would be a good fit there. We did this exercise for a while and then moved on to an assignment he had. It was a paragraph that asked Barrak to identify who specific pronouns were referring to. Of course, I did not simply give him the answers, but I asked him why he thought his answers were right and then reminded him of specific clues that may help. He would then rethink his answer and then come up with the correct one.
