Sorry didn't post yesterday, but I'll include the information in this post. Yesterday, we went over subject/verb agreement. Click here to see the presentation. The first worksheet focused on review as students needed to underline the subject and verb and decide if the subject was singular or plural. Click here to see it. Students only needed to do the first side. Next we went on to nouns that sound like many but are only one and on the backside there were sentences with different word order than students are accustom to. Click here to see that sheet. Finally we went over what we find as the rule many students get wrong when writing papers: compound subjects agreeing with the verb. Click here to see that sheet. Most students finished in class so the only homework they had was to read AR.
Today we added on the final grammar lesson with punctuation: proper use of commas and how to use semicolons. Click here to see the presentation and click here for the notes. You may notice at the end of both there is a section on dashes. We will not be covering it because of time, but if you would like to learn about dashes, just continue on in the presentation.
