Kaaaa-rat-ay Chop Those Sentences

As we've worked on learning sentence structure, we've had a special guest at school to help us. Mr. Sensei loves to chop sentences into their Subject (noun - Who? or What?) and Predicate (verb ~ What happened?) This is an important concept to help students learn how to identify complete sentences and place proper punctuation. Mr. Sensei was a surprising motivator for helping students understand this complex concept. Ask your child to karate chop a sentence for you at home.

Alaska Shirt CompanyThe Juneau location of the Alaska Shirt Company is a huge supporter of my classroom each year. They donate prizes for our prize boxes, hats for our students, and supplies for learning.

If you have never been to this event, it is a MUST! They have great prices and fun stock to choose from.
