 We've been reviewing this content in class but here's what you can also be reviewing at home:

Students should have memorized and be able to name the 7 subject pronouns as well as the 7 possessive pronouns (jingles are especially helpful for this!).

Students should know the three types of sentences and what each means (i.e. a declarative sentence makes a statement, exclamatory shows strong emotion, interrogative is a question)

The punctuation and abbreviation for possessive noun (PN or PNA is acceptable) and the punctuation is an apostrophe
