Tone Words and Linking Verbs

Greetings!
 
As we talked about at the Cafe last Tuesday, here are a couple of
websites for use with
mood/tone study...apart from the ones in the
writer's handbooks we looked at on
Tuesday which were, of course,
capital in and of themselves.
I enjoyed our talk and hope to see
you at the next meeting!

Continuing our discussion...Does anyone have more amazing strategies
for purging
those pesky linking verbs from student writing?

Have a good Thursday-
