A and An

One of the basics of grammar is knowing the article A and An.People do not give much attention to this that is why they misuse it unknowingly in a sentence .Do not be one of those people! Know the rules!


*A and An can only be used before a singular noun.

It is wrong to say:
 I have an apples in my basket

The noun"apples" is plural so we cannot use the article An.

The correct way to say the sentence is:
I have apples in my basket.

*An is used before a word that starts with a vowel sound.

Example: An orange (orange starts with the vowel "o")
                 An elephant(elephant starts with a vowel "e")

How about the article "A"?When should we use it in a sentence?
Know the answer..Have more of these!
                                                                                                                              
                                                                                                                       Vocabulary
misuse- not used correctly
unknowingly- not knowing;
                       do not know
 Learn vocabulary..Learn Grammar

Singular and Plural

Singular  and  plural

Let’s review on nouns:
What is a noun?

         •A noun is a name of person, places, animals and things. 

Example: dog
Is dog a noun? 
What kind of noun is a dog? 
•It is an animal 
How many dog do you see? 
There is only one dog.
So a dog is a singular noun.

Singular means only one.
More examples...
Carrot

Computer

Now, how many balloons do you see?

*There are 3 balloons.
* Is 3 more than one?
*This means that the noun balloons is plural. 



  Plural means many or more than one. 
More examples:
Eggs 
Flowers

Reading Words with Digraphs

When students are engaged in phonics and learn that each letter of the alphabet makes a sound, it’s time to move on to digraphs. Digraphs take learning phonics to the next level because students suddenly discover that two letters can blend together to make one sound. It can get a bit confusing!  
Fortunately, learning digraphs is fun.

Consonant Digraphs

Consonant digraphs are two letters that come together to make one sound.

The 4 Consonant Digraphs:
ch, sh, th, wh
DIGRAPH


Chin  has the consonant digraph ch 
which makes the sound /ch/
Sound it out!
chin 
ch – i – n
chi – n 
chin
The 4 Consonant Digraphs: ch like in ‘chart’
Initial ch
chew   chop  chips
 choice  chance   chain
Final ch
touch   each    reach 
coach  ouch    beach 
Reading Readiness!
Time to
Ch-Ch-Chant!
I’m a chick. 
My name starts with /ch/. 
/Ch/ is the sound. Uh-huh!


I write /ch/ with a c and an h.
Chick starts with /ch/. Uh-huh!
