This week...
This week we will be learning about the formation of sentences and paragraphs. Within this we will learn about Subject and predicate, adjective and noun agreement and subject/verb agreement. We will also have 10 vocabulary words taken from our readings. The students will be responsible for knowing how to spell them and use them in a sentence.
Subject and predicate...
The subject of a sentence is who or what the sentence is about:
Mr. Tim likes to run everyday. --> the subject of this sentence is Mr. Tim.
He likes ice cream. --> He is the subject.
The horses run fast. --> The horses are the subject.
The predicate of a sentence is what the subject does or is:
The cows eat grass all day. --> "eat grass" is the predicate because it is what the cows do.
Mr. Tim acts like a monkey in class. --> "acts like a monkey" is the predicate.
Mr. Sean is tall. --> "tall" is the predicate because that is what Mr. Sean is.
