When you spend your Monday morning at the #SyntaxParty and immediately begin implementing strategies to increase students writing and reading power 🙌🏼 @ONlit_social
After watching the amazing @ONlit_social webinar on syntax by Margie Gillis yesterday, I was inspired to listen to this amazing Reading Road Trip podcast episode again. So many great ideas for teaching syntax to students! #syntaxpartypodcasts.apple.com/ca/podcas…
Direct and explicit instruction in combining sentences is so important. This is a simple—yet incredibly effective—activity for teaching students how to combine two sentences. #syntaxparty#ONlit#OntEd
The Literacy How Reading Wheel positions oral language (speaking and listening) at the core of the wheel as the foundation for learning to read, and outlines essential literacy skills for proficiency in reading and writing. @ONlit_social#syntaxparty#beingcreative#pvnclearns
Sentence scrambles are a great way to help students understand the function of words in a sentence. I love the direct questioning by the teacher! #syntaxparty#ONlit
This was a great reminder that the language and sentence structure in books can be so different from what kids hear in oral language. We need to expose students to complex sentences during shared reading of texts! #syntaxparty#onted
I'm attending a #SyntaxParty! Probably the nerdiest event I've attended since "Yearbook Camp" in high school 😅... but I'm loving it. And coming away with lots of ideas to help my #MLs become better speakers, writers, and readers. Thanks @IDA_Ontario and @Literacyhow for hosting!
