Change the words in the sentence below as indicated. You can only change the exact word in the sequence given; after someone else has posted the next change, then you can post another change. For instance, student 1 writes #1 Subject Noun, and changes the subject noun; Student 2 writes #2 Direct Object Noun, and changes that noun. Each student only makes one change at a time and keeps to the order indicated. If you complete all 7 changes, then start making more changes again from 1 to 7. Each student should build on the changes that the previous students make.

SAADAT:Saadat--you;ve changed the adjectives, too; note that the adjectives don't need capital letters;-)
JULIE: Yes!
INGRID: Good, and thanks for correcting the capitalization:-)
Sorry Veronica,
#2. Direct Object Noun:
Sophia greedily ate the Honey glazed Ham from her aunt.
SAADAT: OK, but actually you don't need any capitals there--Easter is capitalized because that adjective is derived from a proper noun. In your sentence, ham is a common noun, and honey is derived from a common noun--no capitals;-)
2. Sophia greedily ate the honey glazed ham from her uncle.
5. Sophia patiently ate the honey glazed ham from her uncle.
6. Sophia patiently took the honey glazed ham from her uncle.
7. Sophia patiently has eaten the honey glazed ham from her uncle.
SAADAT: #2--good; #5--you should have also kept the changes that Julie and Ingrid made; #6--yes; #7--you should have used the verb "take" (change #6) and used it in another verb tense. With each sentence, you need to incorporate and build on the previous changes;-)
