Mentor Sentences 4th Grade Grammar Bundle for the School Year, TEKS aligned

Description

This bundle of new TEKS aligned mentor sentence units is a whole year purposeful instruction that blends explicit instruction of grammar skills with hands-on sentence building and constructing. Students analyze sentences, learn new TEKS-based grammar skills, revise and create sentences following specific structures.

This product helps students connect spelling and grammar instruction to their own writing and testing situations! Teach grammar authentically and effectively through the use of mentor sentences and a thoughtful approach to conventions instruction.

Fourth Grade TEKS and State of Texas Writing Test aligned! I have updated the first nine weeks unit to reflect the new TEKS. The other three nine week units will be updated soon!
