 <\/p>\n

I’ve been teaching Major and Minor Works in every class and every private writing student meeting for two weeks now–and I feel like a broken record!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

(Since I was teaching so much about it, I have provided teaching for my blog readers too—did you see these:<\/p>\n

1) Color Essay Video Teaching<\/a> (lots of detailed instruction on Major and Minor Works in the video AND the free lesson)<\/p>\n

2) 5 Tips for Major and Minor Works From Language Lady<\/a> (Yes, I got carried away and made a slideshow about it too!)<\/p>\n

3) Tricky Tricks Download<\/a>–print these off for your students!)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So…with all those “lessons,” you should be ready for a quiz….right? \ud83d\ude42<\/h3>\n

So here you go…..Decide in each sentence provide whether the title is a major work or minor work. (Answers below.)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

1.<\/strong> I used the encyclopedia essay titled Mammals for my report.<\/p>\n

2.<\/strong> I just got a new cd called Ballads for the Ballroom. (That sounds like a good idea–I should do that!)<\/p>\n

3.<\/strong> Have you ever read the book The Red Badge of Courage?<\/p>\n

4.<\/strong> My favorite dance song on my new cd is Could I Have This Dance?<\/p>\n

5.<\/strong> She assigned five chapters this week, starting with Non-Essential Information. (You guess it, LL readers–that is what we are going to study this week on here!)<\/p>\n

6.<\/strong> They said we could consult Wikipedia, but we aren’t allowed to cite it.<\/p>\n

7.<\/strong> Our new favorite boxed television show is Person of Interest.<\/p>\n

8.<\/strong> I haven’t received a Reader’s Digest magazine in years.<\/p>\n

9.<\/strong> My favorite composition series is Meaningful Composition.<\/p>\n

10.<\/strong> I am using their bonus book right now, called The SAT Essay and Other Timed Writing.<\/p>\n
