Class Experience

US Grade 6
Intermediate Level
Welcome to my class! I'm so excited you decided to enroll. In this course we will have discussions on text exerts, play games (such as MadLibs), do hands-on activates (such as drawing to show understanding), and interactive lessons using YouTube. 

The topics of this course will cover aspects of sentences: nouns, verbs, and clauses. Mostly this class will focus on how all these come together to make a concise sentence. 

My teaching style is a tactile-kinesthetic learner. I learn best hands on. In this course, we will be using multiple learning styles (visual, auditory, tactile, and reading. I use these techniques in conjunction with my lesson plans to enhance the learning experience.

Learning Goals

Identify and define the basics of sentence structure (nouns, verbs, adjectives, etc.).
Recognize and construct different sentence types (simple, compound, complex).
