We are well on our way to becoming grammar experts in 3PA. During the upcoming week, students will be learning about adjectives, subjects, predicates, and verbs. Students participate in daily readings as well as Kagan structures which help to solidify their understandings of the grammar concepts being studied. These structures also help students to work on their communication and collaboration skills. There will be a short quiz over nouns, pronouns, and adjectives on Tuesday.
Last week, we began learning about plot development through the use of a short fable entitled The Lion and the Gnat. Students were exposed to a plot development chart and reviewed the following elements: exposition, rising action, falling action, and resolution. This week, we will continue to use The Lion and the Gnat to work on inferential thinking and identify consequences and implications. Students will also be writing a similar short story. Learners will be required to include the story elements previously discussed. I am so impressed with your children and their enthusiasm about learning.
