Review of English Sentence Structure

Yesterday we reviewed subjects and predicates in sentences. You can find a good summary of English sentence structure at the website Englishhints.com. There is a table that takes a simple sentence and changes it to a negative statement, then to a question. Then it adds an adverb, a direct object, an indirect object, etc.

My suggestion: Click on the link and review the parts of a sentence. Soon we will discuss compound subjects, verbs, and sentences.

Vocabulary for Scale and Distance at Teacher Kathy's Study Stack Page

I often make vocabulary flashcards to go with a lesson at the website www.studystack.com. I created a stack for today's lesson about using a map scale to calculate distance. On my page at studystack.com, you can view these vocabulary cards and play games that help you remember the meaning of words like scale, ratio, and proportion. Go to studystack.com and type kakcal in the search box, or use the link below. I have also added the link to my list of favorite links on the right-hand side of this page.
