Learning At The Primary Pond
Guided Notes
Key concepts students will learn:
- •
The subject of a sentence tells who or what the sentence is about, while the predicate tells what is happening in the sentence.
- •
To help students focus on writing complete sentences, have them write a single sentence on a strip of paper and use the line drawing strategy to plan out their writing.
- •
Create an anchor chart that visually reminds students of the parts of a sentence, including the subject, predicate, capital letter, and period.
