Piggyback Song By: Carley Paxton May 6, 2013 3rd Grade CCSS.ELA-Literacy.L.3.1a Explain the function of nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs in general and their functions in particular sentences. “The Parts of a Sentence” (sung to the tune of “Alice the Camel”) A noun is a person, place, or thing A noun is a person, place, or thing A noun is a person, place, or thing Like house, dog, and Billy (Boom Boom Boom) A verb is the action of the noun A verb is the action of the noun A verb is the action of the noun Like jump, go, and sing (Boom, Boom, Boom) An adjective describes the noun An adjective describes the noun An adjective describes the noun Like blue, bright, and beautiful (Boom, Boom, Boom) An adverb tells us how, when, and where An adverb tells us how, when, and where An adverb tells us how, when, and where Like slowly, very, and quite (Boom, Boom, Boom) A pronoun refers to the noun A pronoun refers to the noun A pronoun refers to the noun Like they, we, and it (Boom Boom, BOOM!) Steps: 1) 2) 3) 4) First, I introduce the lesson by asking, “What are all the functions or parts of a sentence?” We will name a noun, verb, adjective, adverb, and a pronoun. Then we will go over each individual word and give the definition. After we figured out the definition, I will have the students give an example of each function. We will name all the examples the students could think of until everyone has an opportunity to think of one. Next, we will sing the song “Mary had a little Lamb” to get the students familiar with the tune of the song. After singing the normal version, I will tell the students, “Now, we are going to change the lyrics to the song to help us remember the functions of a sentence. Let’s first look through the song and read the first line.” After reading each paragraph’s line, I will demonstrate how the song goes and the second time the students will join me. Then I will say, “This song will help you remember all the functions of a sentence, when you get stuck or cannot remember what an adverb is, sing the song to remember.”
