- Questions can include identifying parts of speech, correcting sentences, or choosing the right verb tense.
**2. Direct Instruction (15 minutes):**
- Review each key grammar concept briefly, using visual aids like charts or interactive smartboard slides.
- For each concept, give examples and non-examples to clarify the rules. For instance, for subject-verb agreement, show sentences that both correctly and incorrectly match subjects and verbs.
