In a field one summer's day a Grasshopper was hopping about, chirping and singing to its heart's content. An Ant passed by, bearing along with great toil an ear of corn he was taking to the nest."Why not come and chat with me," said the Grasshopper, "instead of toiling in that way?""I am helping to lay up food for the winter," said the Ant, "and recommend you to do the same.""Why bother about winter?" said the Grasshopper;

All About That Base Word- A Spelling Parody for Syllable Juncture spellers

It's all about that base word! This song reviews that when you want to add a suffix (ed/ing) to a base word (run -> running) there are rules about what to do before adding it. Do I double the letter? Do I drop an E? Do I do nothing? This song teaches it all. It is a "parody" of course of Meghan Trainor's "All About That Bass" song, but the lyrics have been changed to teach spelling. The song is free and I will not profit from it. Enjoy! *thumbnail image from Clipartion.com

Importance of learning English language arts

English language arts (ELA) concepts — reading, writing, listening, and speaking — empower students to become effective communicators, critical thinkers, and lifelong learners.

Strong reading skills can help students make sense of written content, and gather information for further analysis. Writing skills can help students articulate their ideas, construct arguments, and synthesize information.
