Teaching Modifiers to English Language Learners

http://www.fluentu.com/blog/educator-english/esl-syntax/

I took a look at this website this week. I was thinking about English language learners this week since school has started. I thought about how in many languages the adjectives come after the noun. I remember learning to do this in Spanish and in French. There are some games put on this website where sentences are scrambled for students and where they must put the sentences in the correct order. I thought this would be a fun game for any student even a native speaker of English to correctly place order their sentence. As I teach grammar in my classroom this year I think I will create some sentence scramble for students to sort out. This will be helpful to all students and make learning syntax more fun in the classroom.
