This week we are beginning our grammar piece of 2nd grade. The students have learned a catchy little song to help them remember our 3 basic rules for a sentence. Here are the words, in case they have forgotten- make them sing it with you!
Every sentence starts with a capital,
Ends with a period,
Has spaces in between.
Every sentence has 3 rules you know...
Make sure you follow them! Yes ma'am!
We are starting our grammar with capitals and all of the appropriate places for them. When papers come home, you will see three little lines underneath a word if it was to be capitalized.
Next week, grammar homework will begin making its way home on Monday and Thursday nights. I cannot promise that we will keep up with 2 every week of the year, but at least count on the Monday night as a staple.
