Keep teaching those grammar terms! It really helps to understand how your own language works in the abstract when you learn your second language and third and.....
Tifani Owens - I would definitely use this app on the ipad in my room. We do a lot of grammer in Kinder. FOr example: Writing sentences and knowing the parts of a sentence. We learn about adjectives, nouns, etc. and there are many easy lessons on grammer jammers that the kids would love. I love it too.
ReplyDeleteHillarie Rollins- I use grammar jammers already! My kiddos love it!
ReplyDeleteDo I need an ipad or iphone to use this? I have neither. Can it be used on a regular computer? I think this would be an awesome tool in the classroom.
