Remember to memorize the "Helping Verbs" song from class today. We will have a quiz on this next week (most likely on Monday, but I will give the definite date in class), so have fun singing at home and learning those helping verbs. The attached document was given in class, but here is another copy for home. The "Linking Verb" song will be learned at a later date.
