12 Week Test Prep Plan- WEEK 2

🎉 Welcome to Week 2 of the Test Prep Plan with Reading Rev! 🎉
This week, we focus on Syntax – The Foundation of Reading and Writing Success.

✅ Why Syntax?
Syntax is key for reading fluency, comprehension, and writing. Without it, students struggle with understanding and creating sentences.

✅ What’s the Plan?

• Start with direct instruction using our Google Slide Deck and Student Note Packet.
• Reinforce learning with Phonics + Grammar Writing Tasks and Syntax Recipe Cards.
• Bring syntax into all subjects to make it stick beyond “grammar” lessons!

✅ Why It Matters:
Students who understand syntax excel in ELA multiple-choice questions and written responses—and it doesn’t even feel like test prep!

✨ Resources:

• Watch the Super-Power Syntax video for teaching tips.
• Use the Google Slide Deck to teach:
  • Complete Sentences
  • Parts of Speech
  • Clauses, Phrases, & Sentence Types
• Try the multi-sensory sentence-building activity with construction paper!
