[ start dicta-phone ] Good morning. Welcome to the class! Today we are going to learn about a new sentence structure. You use it to support what you are saying, with a reason. Like the other classes, you will not need any pens or notebooks. I will give you a sheet at the end of the class with some notes to take home. Vocabulary & Meaning Matching Game We are also going to start by learning some new words. On the BLACK CARDS is a word. On the BLUE CARDS is the meaning of the words. [ give students vocab cards ] Together as a group, I want you to match each WORD with its MEANING.
