Grammar Girl #1.210 "Pronouns and Antecedents"
The number one is the number of Grammar Girl assignments we have done, and the number 210 is the number of the episode on the Grammar Girl website.
Remember, you write a 3-5 summary. Then you write one example from you writing that either shows how you follow the rule or how you broke the rule. You need to cite from which assignment the example comes. Finally, you respond to a classmate's post in a meaningful way.
