Summary

Rather than just demand that students “write clearly,” we’ll explore the hazards of poorly written sentences… and maybe create one of our own!

  1. I model how one sentence can have multiple meanings, then students analyze, “We watched her duck.”
  2. After sharing my answers from the last video, students tackle three more ambiguous sentences.
  3. Finally, students will create their own ambiguous sentence, using a homograph as their starting point.
