It's Friday!!!

Happy Friday, everyone!


Today we had a talk about the poor quality of our sentence writing when it comes to paragraphs.  Most students show me in their spelling sentences that they have the ability to write a complete sentence.  However, when they have to put those sentences together into a paragraph, they struggle.  So . . .

Here's how the homework is working this week end.  Students completed a writing assignment that was requested by the office. I gave them this deal:  If the sentence structure has no mistakes, then they have no homework.  If their sentence structure (not spelling) has any mistakes at all, they will have some English to do that will focus on sentence writing.  A little more than half the class has the English practice to do.  :-(  The worksheet has two sides, one practicing subject/verb agreement and the other practicing writing good sentences in paragraph form by writing a story.  That's the only thing I'm requiring this week end.

Some students took the worksheet because they wanted to do it anyway.  :-)

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to text me.  Have a great week end!
