Transcript
WOW 1. “My ignorance about musical instruments is embarrassing,” I told Aunt Jennifer. 2.She explained, “These kinds of instruments are all horns: trumpets, trombones, cornets and French horns.” 3.Last week, Kyle and I saw this television program about early instruments. 4.“Did you know,” he said, “that horns were once made from real animal horns?” Rules 1. Suffixes – when adding a suffix that begins with a vowel we must drop the e on the root word - Example: ignore + ance = ignorance 2. Comma – used to separate what is being said from who said it (identifier) - Use a comma at the end of speech when it is followed by the identifier 3. Subject-verb agreement – if the subject of the sentence is singular, then the verb is also singular - Example: My dog is cute (dog = subject, is = verb) 4. Irregular verbs – in past tense we change the spelling (don’t just add –ed) Examples: tell – told teach – taught swim – swam ride – rode 5. Adjectives – describe nouns - must agree with the noun they are describing - plural nouns get plural adjectives - Example: kinds of instruments (plural) this program (singular) 6. Colons (:) – sometimes used in sentences to introduce a list of items 7. Pronouns – always put proper nouns before pronouns when using “and” to join them Example: Kyle and I 8. Capitals – do NOT put capitals on words in the middle of sentences unless they are proper nouns (or you are shouting)
