Street Language and Learning

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Students examine the type of language they use on the street in the city. In groups, they brainstorm ideas about a topic they decide on from a cluster of words. Using those ideas, they organize them into a written paper using proper grammar and sentence structures. They identify the street language in their sentences and identify their meaning to end the lesson.
