Language Unit: Pronouns in subject position (I, She, He, It)

This unit was written for elementary children, however, if you have older students who need to develop this concept, you can use a similar format with age-appropriate materials and activities.

As you develop this concept, use vocabulary and sentence structures that the students already know.

Tell students what they will learn and why

Teacher demonstration/modeling

Repeat the steps with another student (Jesse).

Guided practice

If your students have some usable hearing, in all guided practice activities, encourage them to notice how the words/sentences look when lipreading and how they sound. If appropriate, present lipreading and auditory discrimination activities using the words and sentences from the unit.
