Grammar• A noun is a person, place, or thing. • The girl took a baseball to the park.• What are the nouns in the sentence? What is each

noun: a person, place, or thing?• Girl: person; baseball: thing; park: place• The sentence is talking about one girl. One girl is

written girl. If more than one girl went to the park, the noun would need to be plural. Add an –s to girl to turn a singular noun into a plural noun.

Grammar Practice• 1. We are going to have ________ for dinner tonight.

(jungle, spaghetti) • I will try jungle in the sentence to see if it fits. No, that is not

a good sentence. • Now I will try spaghetti. That is a much better sentence. • Let’s do the same with this one: Jake asked his ________ to

make hot dogs for dinner. (father, aquarium)

• I will try father in the sentence to see if it fits. That sounds like a good sentence, but just to be sure I will also try aquarium.

• That doesn’t make any sense. Father is obviously the correct choice.

Writing• Many people read to find out how to do or make

something. Cookbooks, manuals, and game directions are how-to writing.

• Read the following paragraph with me. • Make a Hot Air Balloon

• You can make your own miniature hot air balloon. You will need flour, water, a balloon, newspaper strips, paint, string, and a paper cup. First, blow up the balloon. Next, mix one up of flour with one cup of water. Dip the newspaper strips into the flour paste. Then, cover the balloon with the wet strips of newspaper. Let it dry for a day or two. When the strips are completely dry, pop the balloon. Then paint the surface to look like a hot air balloon. Tie the paper cup to the balloon to make the basket. Finally, attack a string to the top of the balloon, hang it in your room, and imagine flying through the sky in a beautiful balloon.
