During our PA day this morning, we explored the difference between independent and dependent clauses in authentic texts. #syntaxparty#beingcreative#pvnclearns
Grammar is to syntax what letters are to words. By teaching syntax, we share the grammatical building blocks, which are the bridge between word reading and comprehension. Today our staff came together to enrich our knowledge of teaching syntax to all of our students. @PVNCCDSB
As part of the professional activity day, St. Dominic educators are learning how students process language in a four-part processing model. #syntaxparty#beingcreative#pvnclearns
Our literacy team is back together again! @thismomloves We did trial training for Gr 3-6 Acadience. We got some valuable feedback from phenomenal educators, for our system training this spring! Thanks to @StCatPVNC for hosting us! On every level @PVNCCDSB is working as a team!
Check out the UFLI Foundations game generator app! Select one or more lessons and generate new games using words from those lesson. Games can be a fun way for kids to get the extra practice they need!
