Grammar Interactive Notebook (Part 4): All About Verbs Boot Camp, ELA & Writing

Become a Grammar Scout! Through this fun 5 week camp, improve your ELA and writing skills while building a creative and interactive grammar guidebook. As students create and craft their notebooks, they will be engaged in a meaningful note-taking format that fosters a deeper understanding of writing and grammar. They can have as much fun and be as creative as they want when designing their pages with interactive flip tabs, colors, etc. Once completed, the grammar notebook becomes a clever study-guide and reference material that they can continue to use for years. 

There are NO live meetings for this class. It may be viewed and completed at your convenience. Each lesson will receive a step-by-step guide video from me. Within this class video, I will introduce the lesson topic, walk students through crafting their notebook page, while also providing notes and activities to teach that week's grammatical subject. After completing their notebook pages with me, there will be recommended assignments listed to provide additional practice. Activities may include worksheets, graded assessments with feedback, posters, games, and other similar learning-focused experiences. Optional homework will ask students to share an image of their completed notebook pages with me if they would like feedback on their notes.

Part 4 of our series covers everything students need to know about using verbs within their writing. We'll use this 5 week "All About Verbs" course to introduce the various verb types, including action verbs, linking verbs, and helping verbs. We delve even further by exploring predicate nominatives, predicate adjectives, various verb tense, infinitives, participles, direct objects, and indirect objects. Students will find themselves referencing these rules for years to come as they complete written assignments in various subjects!

This class is about having fun and expressing creativity while learning grammar skills. My teaching style will mirror this in a low pressure setting where I model the joys of learning. I am thorough and try to fully explain everything with instructional slides, videos, and examples. I'm also always available if they need help or have additional questions. I look forward to students learning a love for grammar through this class. It would make a great summer camp course.
