Notebook Check #2 Items

Let me suggest that before you begin answering the questions on a notebook check that you determine what is being asked for. Then, when you know what is being asked for, you should be able to find it in your notebook.

The latest notebook asked for information on thes topics:
Two questions (as always) dealt directly with items from the agenda. The dates are given, so you should be able to find them if you have dated them.
One question dealt specifically with information about the 1920s. We dealt with the 1920s with the video tape. Check there for the information.
One question as a vocabulary word with the cue "Fitzgearald uses." This should be a word you either know the meaning of, or it should be in your annotation from the book.
One question dealt with sentence usage. Sentence usages deals with writing--check your notes about the persuasive paper. We dealt with sentence usage in revising the paper.
One question dealt with linking verbs. Verbs are part of grammar. I'd check the grammar section of your notebook or again, we are dealing with writing, so check the notes you took on revising your paper.

If you know what is being asked for, you will have a better chance of knowing where it is in your notebooks.
