This useful material provides conversational strategies to help students master the use of conjunctions in oral language.
This program gives students a solid base on which to build reading and writing skills, and better understand classroom discourse and textbooks.
 
Pre- and posttests identify students’ needs and monitor progress. Lessons include:
  • Coordinating Conjunctions: and, but, for, nor, or, yet
  • Subordinating Conjunctions: after, so that, in order that, although, through, than, as, as if, as long as, unless, because, until, before, when, whenever, if, where, wherever, since, while
  • Correlative Conjunctions: both/and, either/or, neither/nor, not only/ but also, whether/or
 
A variety of methods reinforce the use of conjunctions, using active learning and instant feedback. American Sign Language (ASL) is incorporated to teach the meaning of each conjunction. This unique approach presents abstract words in visual, concrete terms. All reproducibles are included as pdfs on the CD.
 
Activities include:
  • 25 ASL signs
  • 144 reproducible stimulus picture cards
  • Reproducible game board
  • Short narratives and story starters
  • Reproducible worksheets
  • Reproducible parent and teacher letters
