    First, is defining what a verb is will help Carmen focus on the words that are changed when–ed or –ing are added.

Then, having Carmen point out the verb and the type of ending they have. Carmen will be given the opportunity to explain if the verb is present or past tense. Monitoring how Carmen is able reads sentences with past and present tense words will allow me to see if she continues to ignore the ending of verbs when adding –ing or –ed. Also, having Carmen find the verb in the sentence will also help with knowing how much Carmen understands what she is reading.

According to Brown (1973) children go through five stages of syntactic development, the stage I will…

    considerably more then an object placed upon the head. Collins exemplifies the hat in unique ways, observing the “use” of the hat in both the past and the present. Flashing back in time to when all humans still owned hats, not as an object, but rather as a vehicle for the mentality of this time, it’s easily observed that the “hat” is a normal commodity.
