For 26 June 2026, the Weekly Text from Mark’s Text Terminal is the third lesson plan (of 17, the rest forthcoming) of the Introduction to Writing Sentences Unit, this one to assists students in differentiating between phrases in clauses in their writing, and and developing their understanding in how to use both in prose.
This parsing sentences worksheet, which calls upon students to identify nouns in five longish sentences (the worksheet is a half page) opens the lesson and settles students, presumably, after a class change. This scaffolded worksheet is the mainstay of the lesson. Here is a learning support on phrases and another on clauses that will help students complete the class work for this lesson. And here is the teacher’s copy of the worksheet to reduce your cognitive strain.
If you find typos in these documents, I would appreciate a notification. And, as always, if you find this material useful in your practice, I would be grateful to hear what you think of it. I seek your peer review.
