Which of the grammar components (if any) would you like more help with?

What about all those texts that I wrote?

I will read all of them and note down common mistakes.  We will work through those mistakes next week. No individual feedback unless I feel you really need it in order to succeed.

On Monday (13 September) we will do peer review. Choose TWO of your written texts (abstract nouns, effective verbs, compound adjectives, adverbs that modify nouns) to class (digital or paper copy) for your classmates to give feedback on!
