How Children Can Access Their Assignments

- The main menu also allows students to see their progress in each individual game and exercise in the assignment.
Track Assignment ProgressAs your child completes each assignment, you'll be able to track their performance in the Assignments tab of our Progress Tracker. You'll also be able to make edits to assignments from here, like removing games or exercises, or changing the due date.
Students will be able to identify and distinguish between questions and statements.
Introduction (5 minutes)
- Talk about what it means to ask a question.
- Talk about what a statement is.
- Discuss the difference between the two. Make sure to mention that statements end with periods, whereas questions end with question marks.
Explicit Instruction/Teacher Modeling (10 minutes)
- Place the Question poster on one side of the room.
- Place the Statement poster on the opposite side of the room.
- Read aloud the first sentence from the Question or Statement list. Show the class that if you think it is a statement, you'll go stand near the Statement poster. If you think it is a question, you'll go stand near the Question poster.
Guided Practice/Interactive Modeling (10 minutes)
- Tell the class to get ready to begin the activity.
- Have students stand up, push their chairs in, and get their listening ears ready.
- Read the rest of the sentences on the list. For each one, have the students move to the poster they believe describes the sentence.
Independent Working Time (15 minutes)
- Ask students to complete the Question or Statement worksheet independently.
- Provide assistance when needed.
- Enrichment: Have advanced students come up with original questions and statements to write on the backs of the worksheets.
- Support: Have struggling students highlight key words that start questions, e.g. "what" or "how.' Brainstorm words that questions start with on the whiteboard.
Assessment (10 minutes)
- To assess students' understanding of the lesson content, observe how they work and review their worksheets once they turn them in.
Review and Closing (5 minutes)
- Ask the class to read the questions and statements they found.
- Ask them to share which key words they looked for to help them make their decisions.
