Description
Ages: 7-AdultGrades: 2-Adult
This step-by-step, picture-based program with a meta-cognitive approach appeals to visual learners. The format breaks sentence structures into steps students can understand, making the development of more complex sentence structures attainable.
Each unit begins with a suggested list of sentences and a meta-cognitive modeling example. As the student looks at step-by-step illustrations, the metacognitive prompts help him describe each picture and write the corresponding words and phrases. Students learn to think about each element in a sentence and systematically construct increasingly complex sentences. The well-organized program progresses from simple to increasingly complex sentence structures and negative forms.
