Let me assure you that Easy Grammar is as the name
implies---EASY! Both teachers and parents have shared that, in teaching the easily
presented concepts found in Easy Grammar materials, they, too, have learned!
The Easy Grammar method uses a unique approach. Students memorize and learn
prepositions first. Why? Most of the time, a prepositional phrase will not be the
subject of a sentence. It will never be a verb. Therefore, students are taught
to identify prepositional phrases to help determine subject and verb. It's so easy!
Usually, a prepositional phrase will not be a direct object, a predicate
nominative, or anything important. The Easy Grammar method simplifies the teaching and
learning of the English language.
In using this process, students are actively engaged in learning. They love the
"hands on" manner, and the process makes them successful.
This approach is used periodically throughout the text in order for students to understand
other concepts such as direct objects, subject/verb agreement, etc.
Another important difference in Easy Grammar is that concepts are introduced and reviewed
throughout the school year. In addition, reviews and cumulative reviews are provided
along the way to help insure mastery learning.
The Easy Grammar Series also includes units of study in capitalization, punctuation,
sentence types, friendly letters, and more.
Daily Grams: Guided Review Aiding Mastery Skills are also available and recommended.
Providing ample daily review of concepts, these are extremely effective in helping
to insure mastery. There are 180 reviews per book, and each page contains
capitalization review, punctuation review, grammar/dictionary skills, and sentence
combining for improved writing skills. |
