In this course, students will be introduced to the eight parts of speech. Each week we will cover a different part of speech and learn how to use it and how to identify it. Students will learn what each part of speech is, how it functions in the sentence, how to use it, and how to identify it in sentences. We will also be memorizing lists of verbs, prepositions, conjunctions, and pronouns using chants and music. This will allow students to quickly identify things such as helping verbs, state of being verbs, prepositions, etc. Students will walk away from this class able to confidently dissect a sentence into the various parts of speech. We will also learn how to use the parts of speech to form a variety of sentences. The class schedule will be as follows: 

Week 1: Nouns: Person, Place, Thing, or Idea
Week 2: Verbs: Action, Linking, State of Being
Week 3: Adjectives: Describe Nouns or Pronouns (What Kind, Which One, How many, How much, Whose)
