Grammar Jammer Semester or Drop-In; 5th 6th and 7th Grade

In this ongoing class, teacher and learners will work together to learn and practice the rules of grammar. We will begin working with simple sentences and work towards more in-depth understandings. We will use video clips, slides, discussion, and games to understand how language works. Students will play games and interact with each other and the teacher to practice and master grade-level standards. 

The topics covered will include nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, pronouns, conjunctions, prepositions, interjections, linking verbs, helping verbs, phrases, and clauses.

Each week of lessons will be independent, so learners can come and go as their schedules permit. We will begin each week with a detailed standards-based discussion and proceed to practice, exercises, and games to use the skills that we are learning. We will not depend on memorization; we will discuss and practice the skills that we are learning so that learners take ownership of their learning and develop true understanding.

I have years of experience working with learners with disabilities, so if your learners struggle, this is the place for them. We will work together to create a safe and enjoyable learning environment in which ALL learners achieve and succeed. I encourage parents to reach out and share with me any concerns that they have about their learner's abilities and progress. 

Learners will be provided with class documents to print before class. Please ensure that your learner has their documents for each class meeting. Much of the classwork will be based on these documents.
