When we started Grade 1 together, we knew the sounds the letters make (thank you, Mrs. Sombyk and Miss Wilson!) and a few words. 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:
We sorted letters, words and sentences as a class ...
... and then continued our sorting independently!
As a class, we worked together to correct sentences, adding capitals and end punctuation.
Using supported sentence frames, we practiced writing our own complete sentences! Soon we'll learn how to use the criteria checklist, in the top right corner.
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!
