    Mentor sentences are the perfect way to teach grammar and author’s craft through examples of excellent sentences from your favorite read-aloud books! This unit will be a great way to integrate grammar and language during your novel study of Fish In a Tree by Lynda Mullaly Hunt! It does not include explicit directions of how to implement mentor sentences in your room- these directions are in the Volume 1, FIRST Ten Weeks: Mentor Sentence Unit, Volume 2, FIRST Ten Weeks: Mentor Sentence Unit, or Volume 3, FIRST Ten Weeks: Mentor Sentence Unit products for sale.

    Not familiar with mentor sentences? Read all about them here!

    *****************************************************************************
    WHAT’S INCLUDED?
    I walk you through each day’s lesson for 5 weeks- all the work is done! I’ve even done all the thinking for you when it comes to revising and imitating! 🙂
    Each lesson includes the teacher sentence page, the student sentence page, a lesson plan page with possibilities for all 4 days, an interactive activity with the focus skill, and a quiz aligned with CCSS with answer key. ★ The quizzes are included as printables and also digital-classroom-ready, provided as Google Slides. ★

    Skills covered in this unit:
    ➤dialogue
    ➤prepositional phrases
    ➤complex sentences
    ➤gerunds
    ➤simile
    Please download the preview file to see the layout. There are 5 lessons. I have broken the book apart into “chunks” for each lesson, stopping at natural points. You could do these lessons the week you are reading that section, or complete them the week AFTER you read that section. It is up to you!

    *****************************************************************************
    Please remember, this purchase is for the use of one teacher. It is not intended to be shared. Please use the ‘additional license’ purchase if more than one teacher will be using it. Thank you!
    *The mentor sentence lessons I have created are adapted from the ideas of Jeff Anderson. These lessons were born from the routine that worked well in my classroom, and the demos and examples I present are variations of Jeff Anderson’s methods. This is not the only way to “do” mentor sentences in your classroom.*
