What is a Sentence?

When we started Grade 1 together, we knew the sounds the letters make and a few words, too (thank you Mrs. Sombyk & Mrs. Nestorowich!). You'll never believe it, but we are now working on writing FULL SENTENCES! 

We really began examining what a sentence was this past Monday. 


We learned three things every sentence has:





Then Mrs. Beliveau revealed her hidden talent ... rapping!




We sorted letters, words and sentences as a class ...





... and then continued our sorting independently!





During our writing blocks, we are practicing writing our own complete sentences.


Look at some of our hard work!


Writing strong sentences is a skill we will work on throughout the year. Support your child by finding sentences in the books you read, by identifying components of a sentence in our daily agenda message, and by writing sentences together ... the sillier the better!
