Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 5
Let's grow our sentences as we grow our English vocabulary. Students will practice the popular sentence writing model of starting with a simple sentence and expanding the sentence by answering the basic 5W &1H questions (who, what, when, where, why and how).

Each week, we will focus on one question word that will help us make a longer sentence. Students will receive a vocabulary list, so they can expand their vocabulary. Student can use the list to pick stronger words to write better descriptive sentences. 

**This class is NOT for beginners. Students need to know basic English vocabulary words .
***This class is NOT for new students new to handwriting. Students will need to write words at a medium-to-fast speed in order to answer all the questions.
** This class is for writing. Students must write sentences in the class during the class time. I have other classes for only speaking. 
** Students need to write neatly with a dark pencil/pen or type in the chat box. I will take a screen shots of the written sentences, so students must write in a clear manner and with dark letters.
