Teacher Notes (not visible to students)
See junewriters.com/teachers for other resources to help you teach predicates and other grammar, punctuation, and editing conventions. Writing conventions practiced in this assignment: • All sentences must have a subject and predicate, a capitalized first word, and ending punctuation • A predicate is what’s said about the subject and consists of the verb (what the subject is doing) and other stuff. -The other stuff is optional, but the verb is mandatory.
