Second Grade Talking Points
- "Grammar helps us communicate clearly and effectively."
- "Using the correct verb tense is important in baking. For example, we say 'I want to bake cookies' instead of 'I want to bakes cookies'."
- "We use 'put' instead of 'putted' when talking about placing something. So, we say 'She put the cake in the oven'."
- "When writing about our favorite baking recipe, we should use complete sentences and proper punctuation."
- "Following instructions in a recipe helps us create delicious treats, and it also helps us practice reading and understanding different types of sentences."
