Nouns, Verbs, Sentences and Wordpress!

Hi everyone! I wanted to share an activity that we did recently. We have been learning about complete sentences. This activity is about Nouns, Verbs and Adverbs. We worked on it as a class by reading words from each category and then deciding where it would make sense. The kids liked it a lot and have been enjoying referring to the poster.

I also wanted to mention that we have been doing some rearranging in blog world. My husband and I have decided to turn our Blogger Robin's Nest blog into a family blog so that we can keep extended family updated on kids, grand kids, travel and wedding plans. I have been working on a WORDPRESS.ORG blog for our crafts and projects blog. It has been interesting to work with a different platform, but I am liking it.

Beginning Sentence Scramble, Zebra Print Canvas Bins

Hey everyone! Gosh, it is Friday! Sorry, I haven't posted very regularly the last couple of weeks. You know how it is when school starts . . .busy, busy, busy! We did a fun activity yesterday to introduce the kids to working in a small group. We began learning about the concept that a capital letter always begins a sentence, and there is always punctuation at the end. After practicing this, I gave each group a very simple, 3 word sentence that I had pre-programmed and cut up. Then they had to solve the mystery of what the first word was, the middle word and the last word by looking for the clues of capital letter and punctuation. They then glued them on strips of construction paper and we read all of the sentences as a class. Here is a picture of the finished project.
