A good foundation in grammar is very important for your child to grasp in his education. This book will help you be more accurate and effective in grading your child's test and quizzes. With answers written in blue and suggested point values on each assessment, you will have more time to discuss what your child might have missed and how to fix it. This book also includes a research paper check sheet and grade form to help your child be successful in his very first research paper.
Students start with a quick review of abbreviations and writing numbers, then focus on punctuation and sentence structure, before moving to grammar (parts of speech, and usage), with an emphasis on writing style. Throughout these chapters "Writer's Corner" assignments (with brief explanations, and detailed steps to plan, write, rewrite, and edit) will include letters, summaries, an informative essay, sketch, narrative, and process essay are assigned; each with one student sample. The composition section reviews the writing process, then guides students in creating outlines, book reports, paragraphs, and a final research project.

The course requires the consumable student text and the spiral bound teacher key (full student text with answers and full Grammar Handbook).

Use the Supplementary Exercises (with perforated pages) for students needing more grammar, usage, and mechanics' practice. ~ Ruth
