Description
Publisher's Description of Editor in Chief Beginning 1
This fun, highly-effective 96-page book teaches students in Grades 2-3 grammar, punctuation, spelling, capitalization, and critical reading in a standards-based thinking approach instead of the usual drill and practice found in competing products. Students begin with an easy-to-understand lesson followed by an activity that requires students to carefully analyze and edit stories, letters, or articles that contain mechanical errors. This effective method allows students to gain mastery over concepts that will translate into their own writing.

- Capitalization
- Apostrophes
- Commas
- Exclamation Marks
- Periods
- Question Marks
- Quotation Marks
- Adjectives
- Adverbs
- Comparisons
- Agreements
- Articles
- Homophones
- Nouns
- Pronouns

Category Description for Editor In Chief Beginning
These workbooks were designed to be an introduction to the Editor in Chief series. Students first review the rules of grammar and mechanics by answering multiple-choice questions. They then learn to apply these rules by editing stories in a variety of formats. Units cover capitalization, punctuation, run-ons and fragments, dialogue, friendly letters, grammar, usage, and spelling. The last unit combines different types of errors into single exercises to review all of the skills simultaneously. The original Editor in Chief Beginning level will be changing to Beginning 2, and the publishers have created a "prequel" for 2nd/3rd grade. ~ Rachel S.
