Not all parts of speech "match" the picture, but some do. This is more about correctly matching colors with the parts of speech in the code key. If there is an arrow, it’s beca

Teaching style
I am a list-maker, question-asker, and choice-giver. I am experimental in engaging students in hands-on ways, especially if music is involved.
_________________________________________________________________________
I like when students can stand in class and talk in line. I like when students can put down pencils while learning, and instead can sing or move. I focus on giving students choice and am practicing a lot of differentiation styles for all learning levels.
_________________________________________________________________________
The toughest experience in differentiating was having a class of 30+ 2nd graders, from a few students who could not read the whole alphabet to students reading at 3rd and 4th grade levels. Having to accommodate that was not only necessary, but was a challenge, and it was as successful as it could have been.
