 Fluency Skills: Pausing-Full Stop
The kids will learn about the skill mentioned above through the rhyme, Humpty Dumpty.

We have learned that we pause, or rest, between some words. Pausing helps us divide our sentences into meaningful parts, which helps listeners understand what we are saying, too. Punctuation helps us figure out when to pause. The punctuation at the end of a sentence signals a longer pause than the punctuation inside the sentence. At the end of a sentence, we come to a full stop and take a breath before the next sentence.
 Handwriting: lowercase v & w
