[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does it matter knowing the names of the parts of speech if the kid can compose sentences and paragraphs well according to grade level? Just knowing that “boat” is a noun and “jump” is a verb isn’t going to make them be able to write well. [/quote] It matters if they want to take German in high school because they have to know what words (the nouns) to capitalize. It matters when their English teacher asks them "Which adjective in line 5 of the poem best describes how the author is feeling about the flower?" It matters when they're learning about FANBOYS and how to combine sentences. [/quote]
