-
Prepositions and prepositional phrases link a noun or verb to describe direction or condition. A preposition relates the noun or pronoun that follows it to some other word in the sentence.
-
It is important to explicitly teach prepositions that do not show spatial or time relationships
-
Distinguish an adverb from a preposition. Adverbs are used alone in sentences. Prepositions must be followed by a noun or pronoun that answers the question to what or whom.
-
For this objective, students need to recognize prepositions.
-
Conjunctions are words that connect parts of a sentence.
-
Coordinating Conjunctions connect equal parts of a sentence.
-
The seven coordinating conjunctions can be remembered with the mnemonic device FANBOYS: For, And, Nor, But, Or, Yet, So
-
Subordinating Conjunctions connect a dependent clause to an independent clause (unequal parts of a sentence)
-
Common subordinating conjunctions: after, although, because, if, how, since, supposing, than, that, though, unless, until, when, where, whether, which
-
Correlative Conjunctions connect two ideas in pairs.
|
Due to recursive nature of the standards, it is essential that teachers are aware of how all objectives within and between strands work together for optimal instruction.
