Lesson 1 focused on the definition of a sentence. (A sentence is a group of words that make a complete thought.) Today we moved on to Lesson 2, which focuses on the subject of a sentence. Unfortunately, I can tell that my second grader is struggling to fully comprehend what a subject is. He did all right with assistance, but wavered when he did it on his own.
In order to help build more confidence in his ability to decipher the basic parts of a sentence and the various definitions of these new terms, I've created this simplistic hands-on packet.
This packet includes the following:
Sentence Vocabulary - Matching Cards includes the following words/phrases:
-- Sentence-- Subject-- Action Part-- Telling Sentence-- Command Sentence-- Exclamations (Exclamatory Sentences)-- Questions (Interrogative Sentences)-- Fragment
Sentence Parts - Sorting Cards includes 2 headers (Subject and Action Part) plus a set of cards to sort. (10 subjects and 10 action parts) Cards can also be used to create sentences by combining a subject card and an action card.
Sentence Types - Sorting Cards includes 4 headers (telling, command, exclamation, and question) plus a set of cards to sort. (3 telling, 3 command, 3 exclamation and 3 question)
If your student or child is struggling with these new concepts or if they simply need extra reinforcement, check out my TpT store to purchase this simple, hands-on packet!
Enjoy!
