일대일 튜터링 - 1학년 문장 - 대화형 수업! 모두 1:1

This is an ongoing class meant for 1:1 tutoring. If you do not like the confusion with booking ongoing classes, I also provide 1:1 tutoring in the 'one-time class' format. :)

What topics will you cover?
-Defining a sentence with many examples
-The 3 ending punctuation marks
-How to write a sentence in 5 steps

What will be taught?
Your learner will: 
-learn how letters make words, sentences, and paragraphs
-learn the definition of a sentence through explicit teaching
-learn the structure of a simple sentence by identifying the naming and telling parts of a sentence 
-learn ending punctuation marks
-state the difference between naming (subject) and telling (predicate) parts of a sentence
-connect naming and telling parts together
-finish sentence starters with a telling part they come up with
-create their own sentence using a sight word provided
-use a picture to help generate their own sentence 
-learn the 5 steps to writing a sentence

If your learner is past the basics and ready for the next step, I will challenge them with content from my level 2 and 3 classes where they will practice writing sentences on their own, expanding sentences, and editing basic sentences.

Each concept will be taught first and reinforced with practice.  Please provide lined paper and a pencil so they are able to write their complete sentences. 

I will be able to tell if your learner is past my level 3 material. In this case, we will continue on to the next steps such as learning the writing process for the 4 basic paragraphs, compound sentences, complex sentences, coordinating conjunctions, dictation sentences, sentence variation,  etc. 

How is your class structured?
-My class will be on Nearpod. Concepts will be taught through slides and reinforced with practice to promote independence.  There will be games on Nearpod and learning with movement (moving arms and hands to learn ending punctuation marks).

How will you teach?
-I will provide explicit teaching with a lot of repetition to reinforce concepts. I will break down how to write a sentence. I will use words like 'naming part' and 'telling part' as learners are only starting to be introduced to subjects and predicates. I will teach with interactive slides and games. The slides will allow them to write, draw, or type on the screen as well as drag and drop to categorize things.

What's your teaching style?
-My teaching style is all about allowing learners to feel heard and to learn as much as they can in our session. I will start with an icebreaker that everyone will do to get us comfortable with each other. I am a special education teacher that welcomes older learners that need a refresher on writing sentences. I like to have fun and laugh while we are learning. I enjoy building confidence and giving a lot of praise. All are welcome! 

How much will learners get to interact with you and each other?
-I am hoping your learner will interact with me on every slide! My lesson depends on student participation. Your learner will have opportunities to share their sentence part or the whole sentence they wrote in the screen. I will use Nearpod for them to draw on the screen so I know they are following along and understanding the concept. They will play Time to Climb to practice remembering to capitalize the first letter of a sentence. They will use the Collaborative Board to write their own telling parts to a sentence starter. They will play matching pairs with naming and telling parts to continue solidifying the concept.  They will also get to drag and drop sentence parts into the correct category. Throughout the entire lesson, I will ask tailored questions so that the learner has many opportunities to participate. In the end, they will write their own sentence and share if there is time. 

Any required experience or knowledge learners need?
-Letters and their sounds
-How to write all letters
-Basic sight words (preferably 50-100 Fry Sight Words or the Dolch Preprimer and Primer Sight Words)

What is the pacing of the class?
-Because this is a one-on-one setting, the pace will be set by your student.

Can my student take this class again?
Yes! In this stage of their growth, guided practice and repetition is their best friend. The more practice and confidence they build now in the foundation stage will help them in the future. My goal is for your learner to write with ease and confidence.
