Week Four

On Tuesday I taught a Grammar lesson on Subjects and Predicates. To prepare for the lesson I cut out twenty-six sentence strips, each one containing either the subject or predicate of a sentence. For the lesson I mixed up all the strips and randomly handed one to each student. I reviewed what a subject and predicate was and explained that each strip contained one or the other. They were to go around to each student until they found someone who they could make a complete sentence with. I am happy to say that this lesson was a great success. The children enjoyed the activity and were able to pair up to make complete sentences. They were even creative with their sentences, joining subjects and predicates that read, "Ms. Nicholas has six legs." :) I would definitely use this lesson again in the future!
