About this skill
Ask: can I put 'the' before it (noun)? Can I do it (verb)? Does it describe something (adjective)?
How to teach it
- Read each sentence aloud — your ear often catches what your eye misses.
- Connect every rule to the child's own writing.
- Keep practice short and frequent.
Mistakes to watch for
- Learning rules without applying them in real sentences.
