The students will watch the sketchcast video (engagement activity) and define the given
words.
The words should be brought in to class to begin the classroom opening discussion.

What will be done in class on the following day? (Elaboration & Exploration)

An opening discussion will occur asking, What are the characteristics of each type of
sentence?
Create 3 anchor charts and list this as: Simple Sentence, Compound Sentence, Complex
Sentence
As the students give feedback of the sentence characteristics you will write it on the
designated anchor chart

simple, compound, and complex collage using sentences found in magazines.
Leave your class with the question of How can we apply this knowledge into our
everyday lives?
How will you assess student learning? (Evaluation)
