Class Experience

US Grade 1 - 2
In this lesson, learners will have fun listening to a story about the period, the comma, the question mark, and the exclamation point.  This family of Punctuations joins the letters at school, and they form words like Wow! and Why? and Yes. But Comma isn't sure where he belongs. He just seems to get in the way. Is he really important?  After the story, we will play an interactive punctuation game, where the students get to control the screen using their computer mouse or touchpad and choose the correct punctuation for sentences. Then we will make a punctuation cube. When finished, students will be able to roll the cube and say sentences using the different punctuation marks.  

This class is great for children who are just learning about punctuation, or to provide extra practice for learners who already know about punctuation. Let's start our punctuation learning!

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi! I'm Teacher Shannon! I have taught 2nd grade for 24 years. I've taught both Gifted and Regular Education.  I was a substitute teacher for 2 years working with Early Childhood students as well as older elementary students.  My passion is reading! I love Children's Literature and I have even co-taught college level students on "What's New In Children's LIterature?" for the last 10 years.  What drives me as a teacher is to have a fun, safe, interactive classroom while embracing lots of quality literature.  I want kids to love reading as much as I do and to have fun learning! And maybe make a craft or two along the way!
