Let's share!
DEEP DIVE
I will choose one sentence to rewrite in the passive verb voice & you will have
one minute to revise the sentence and share revised sentence with the class.
With your partner, reread the third full paragraph on page 221 in All Quiet on the Western Front & rewrite the paragraph in passive verb voice.
DEEP DIVE CONT.
EX: “I could almost weep for something to eat” (221).
In this sentence, “for something to eat” is a prepositional phrase. There is no direct object receiving the verb weep. We would have to add a word. For example, “Tears for something to eat were wept by me.”
REVIEW:
DEEP DIVE CONT.
Independently rewrite the sentences in Part 2 of Handout 21B in the opposite verb voice.
