Complete and Incomplete Sentences
There's a new activity up on RoadToGrammar Jr today.
"Understanding Complete Sentences" should be suitable for young learners, in the K-2 range or slightly older if they have English as their second language.
As with all activities on Road to Grammar, it is presented in a straightforward and clear manner. There are two different activities on the topic, answers are always available and there are six pages of notes.
It's formatted to work nicely on a smartboard in the class.
