"I'm going to use a paragraph," Manuel Maniere thought as he started writing a vignette to illustrate the concept of adjectives. "They think that adjectives are words that go just before nouns, and plus, they understand parts of speech better if they're in context. I'll use exciting because it comes after a noun, and I'll use running because it looks like a verb, and home looks like a noun. Then, I'll use words like soon, very, and incredibly, as nonexamples, since they're adverbs.
The following is the paragraph he wrote to use in his lesson:
John and Karen drove together in his old car to the football game. They soon met their very best friends, Latoya and Michael, at the large gate near the entrance. The game was incredibly exciting, and because the team's running game was in high gear, the home team won by a bare margin.
Of the following, Manuel's efforts best illustrate:
◦ general educational knowledge.
◦ professional ethics.
◦ knowledge of the profession.
◦ decision making.
How it all started, from the roots.
