Contextualización

The Student knows how to use appositives phrases to write down strongest stories.

Conceptualización

AppositivesYou can often use appositives, or embedded phrases set off by commas, to combine sentences. This method usually works best when your second sentence gives more information about the subject or object of your first sentence.

You could combine the following two sentences using an appositive: Laura writes a book about her Dad. Camilo is the Dad of Laura. To combine the two sentences, you would add the information about the Dad of Laura. To the first sentence about Laura writes a book.

Laura writes a book about Camilo , who is her Dad.

Sometimes, two simple sentences can be combined so that one simple sentence is hidden within the other. You can do this using dashes — dashes being a form of conjunctive punctuation like the semicolon and colon — which typically are not necessary for the sentence to make complete, logical and grammatical sense. A simple sentence, set off by commas, can also be an effective way of combining two simple sentences. For example, the sentences "Sara always wore pink" and "Sara wanted to be a ballerina" can be combined in one sentence that retains the same meaning: "Sara, who always wore pink, wanted to be a ballerina." Type up silly sentences and have your students use punctuation to make them have logical sense with one another. Read your paragraphs out loud once everyone is finished.

Appositives:

A noun or pronoun placed besides another noun or pronoun to identify or describe it.

Appositives tell something about the noun.

Make strongest sentences.

From a list of adjectives or character traits, have the students circle 6 that apply to their character ( in the independent or group book they are reading).

On the list have some harder words that they need to look up in the dictionary.

Have them then create sentences with appositives for character such as:

Jesse, a diligent, or hard working, boy really wants his family to be more rich.

The kids are writing appositives or descriptive phrases while analyzing characters...it seems like a great activity!
