Conjunction Junction What's Your Function?

It has been a whopper of a day. I woke up to no internet service, and it never got fixed until around dinner time. So I apologize to all my Entrecard and Blogging For Fun friends, that I did not get to visit. I am continuing on with the grammar theme, and those of you who are my age will remember School House Rock videos.

Conjunctions are connectors. The connect individual words or groups of words in a sentence. There are three different kinds of conjunctions: coordinate conjunctions, correlative conjunctions, and subordinate conjunctions. Boring I know, but the video below is fun, and teaches kids to remember these difficult grammar rules through music.

Moving on with some more fun grammar topics. Grammar the most unpleasant lesson for me to teach my children. For one thing it is so boring and so much to remember. Anyways enough whining, watch the video below to catch up on all your grammar needs.

We have had a crazy busy week and I think I am all socialized out. I still have to get portfolios together for next Tuesdays evaluation. At least I have gotten almost all of our books ordered, and curriculums lined up for next year. I hope everyone is having a great week, this week so far. Can you believe it is June 2nd already, ugh where did the year go?
