Adverb movie


To make this imovie, first we chose a partner who is Kwiyeon. We went to gmail and make a new document. In the document we wrote our conversation that will put in our movie. After finished that we went to Dvolver and chose any characters and scene that we want. Also we wrote our conversation in the Dvolver. And then we sent our movie to my email and put the video in the imovie. In imovie we put the background sound and recorded our voice. Then finished!

I learnt adverb usually put 'ly' at the end of the words and adverbs are modify the words. While I making this video, I make a sentences that include adverb. So this process I could learn how to use adverb. I enjoyed making this movie because I learnt how to make a movie and it's interesting! I like my partner Kwiyeon because while we were making this video we shared the work well. I think I was a good partner because I did responsibility.

What I Learned Today

Today in ESL class, I learned about what are the compound sentences, complex sentences, and run-on sentences. A compound sentence is more than one sentence put together with a conjunction. Example, "I play the guitar and my sister plays the piano". A complex sentence is a sentence that include independent clause and dependent clause. Example "I saw the beautiful shoes in the mall, so my mum bought it for me." In this sentence "I saw the beautiful shoes in the mall" is the independent clause and "So my mum bought it for me" is the dependent clause. A run-on sentence is a sentence that put a more than one sentence incorrectly. Example "I decided to buy some breads my mum decided to buy some chocolates" In this sentence there is no joining words. We could put joining word 'and'. Such as "I decided to buy some bread and my mum decided to buy some chocolates." If the sentence is too long, we could also make a new sentence.

What I Learned Today

Today in ESL class, I learned about what is complete sentence and fragment sentence. A complete sentence is a sentence that has a subject, predicate, and complete thought. Example, I want to buy a car. In this sentence, "I" is subject and "want to buy a car" is a predicate. Fragment sentence is a sentence that doesn't have a predicate, subject, and complete thought. Example of fragment sentence is "Wents to school." It's is fragment sentence because there is no subject and no complete thought.
