elementary TESOL education


Have any of you seen "Project Read" (apologies to the author, whose name escapes me)?  It will jangle Johanna's nerves (it gives examples of words which are NOUNS, VERBS, etc.).  The sentence is underlined with either an "x", "!" or "?" at the end to indicate what type of sentence it is.  The initial letter receives a big, inverted "V", indicating the the initial letter of any type of sentence is ALWAYS capitalized.  After that, each part of speech (elementary analysis!) is captured using distinct marks.  Visually, it is easy to see and learn.  And the different marks are easy to learn.  My True Beginning IEP students loved seeing how a sentence (again, elementary) is put together.  Lots of "AHHHH!".
