We will study different parts of speech and figurative language by learning about jokes, writing jokes, and telling jokes.

Class experience

- To understand that some words sound the same but have different meanings (homophones) and to create jokes (puns) using these words
- To expand nouns to enhance written and spoken language.
- To recognize question words and learn to punctuate "knock knock" jokes
- To recognize language patterns and conversation conventions
- To understand the use of questions and answers to create jokes
- To combine nouns (create compound words) into punch lines
- To write clearly and concisely for comic effect
Learners should have a pen/pencil and some paper or a notebook to write on.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
