We are proud to be the first and only accredited Montessori school on the Outschool platform, featuring certified teachers who bring their expertise from our brick-and-mortar school located in Ontario, Canada. This Grammar and Mechanics class will focus on sentences, paragraphs, punctuation, and capitalization, while students engage in foundational learning experiences to develop their writing and language skills in a supportive environment. The class aims to build a solid foundation in writing skills by introducing and reinforcing essential grammar concepts in an interactive and supportive learning environment. Through hands-on practice, guided instruction, and positive reinforcement, students develop confidence in their ability to write clear and effective sentences and paragraphs while mastering punctuation and capitalization rules. Topics covered include: - Sentences: Learning to construct complete sentences with a subject and predicate. - Paragraphs: Understanding the structure of paragraphs, including topic sentences and supporting details. - Punctuation: Introducing basic punctuation marks such as periods, question marks, and exclamation points. - Capitalization: Recognizing when to capitalize the first letter of a sentence and proper nouns. Class structure: The class is structured to be interactive and engaging, designed to accommodate the developmental needs of student's. We will use interactive lessons, hands-on practice where student's will write sentences and short paragraphs, visual aids, and guided activities. Teaching in the senior kindergarten grammar and mechanics class will be hands-on. I will use a variety of teaching techniques such as demonstrating how to write sentences and paragraphs correctly, providing step-by-step guidance and support during writing activities, and through interactive discussions where student's will have conversations about sentence structure punctuation, and capitalization. My teaching style is nurturing and encouraging, fostering a positive learning environment where students feel motivated to learn and explore. I am very supportive and provide my student's a safe space for experiment with language and writing, encouraging, and collaborative. Students will have frequent opportunities to interact with me through various methods such as discussion and dialogue, games and activities, visual aids, and small group work.
