Coal City Middle School eighth graders focus on parts of speech for better communication

Students in Ms. Urquiza’s eighth grade English classes at Coal City Middle School are focusing on understanding parts of speech as a foundation for communication skills. The lessons involve activities where students construct sentences using specific organizational structures, aiming to strengthen both their grammatical and creative writing abilities.

Ms. Urquiza’s approach emphasizes the importance of each part of speech in sentence construction. By practicing these concepts, students are expected to improve as writers and speakers.

"Each part of speech plays a unique role in sentence construction, and grasping these roles helps students become more effective writers and speakers," according to the statement provided by the school.

The exercises require students to apply their knowledge by creating sentences that follow designated structures, supporting the development of clear communication skills.
