Comma Correction: Using Commas With Energetic Teacher Debra Shepherd

Comma Correction: Using Commas With Energetic Teacher Debra Shepherd will be interactive. This class will include lecture, games, discussion, whole-class practice, and independent practice. We will be using a program which is completely free. You will not need to do anything for your student to be successful. Additionally, there will be homework to reinforce what we practice in class.
