Teach students how to write using nouns, not just memorize the grammar rules about them!
With Jivey’s Write On! Grammar Integration Resources, you’ll be teaching grammar in context during your writing time through exploration, revision, and application.
This resource, aligned with best-practices, provides lessons and activities on the use of specific common nouns and should be incorporated into your writing lessons.
Implementation of this resource will help you teach how to bring distinction and clarity to writing with specific nouns. Throughout the lessons, students will revise common nouns with more specific nouns to change a sentence or story’s tone, clarity, and interest level.
Do you use Mentor Sentences?
The Write On! resources are the perfect way to extend your mentor sentence lessons into your writing time!
WHAT’S INCLUDED?
You’ll find that this bonus resource provides two versions of each lesson within the exploration phase. Option 1 enables students to notice how the grammar skill enhances a text by comparing two versions of a story or passage. This option is perfect for an introduction to the skill.
Option 2 requires students to revise the story or passage with the grammar skill. Start with this option if students have already had experience with using the grammar skill in writing.
You could choose to use just one of the lessons within each genre, or begin with Option 1 and then also utilize Option 2 for scaffolded practice.
WHY SHOULD YOU TEACH GRAMMAR IN CONTEXT?
Teaching grammar in isolation can often lead to fragmented learning where students struggle to apply the skills in their writing. Integration helps students understand how grammar concepts function in real-world contexts, making the learning process more meaningful and engaging.
It ensures that grammar becomes an integral part of your students’ “toolkit,” rather than an isolated set of rules to memorize. Through exploration of models followed by application, your grammar instruction becomes a dynamic, interactive process to enhance students’ writing skills.
