HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!

I hope you are having a great Valentine's Day! 

Mrs. Kert showed me an awesome feature in Office 365 yesterday. Did you know you can isolate verbs, nouns and adjectives in your document?  You also can have it read to you, just think how this might help your English papers!  To do this, open your document in OneDrive in your Office 365 account. Go to "View" and click "Immersive Reader".


Once you are in the Immersive Reader mode, click the little "Grammer Options" button (it looks like little books on the upper right). From there you can select what parts of speech you want highlighted.  Ask Mrs. Kert to show you or come by the library if you need help. Just looking at your verb choice this way could really help your papers. Remember, ACTION VERBS, not passive verbs, creates an interesting paper to read.
