Grammar Island introduces, in a simple fashion, the full four-level grammar analysis of (1) parts of speech, (2) parts of sentences, (3) phrases, and (4) clauses.
Using color to reinforce the lessons, the book offers grammar in child-friendly ways, with an array of strategies to make sophisticated material dynamic and fun.
Each page focuses on a single concept, and the teaching approach is to read together with the child, talk about the concepts, ask questions, refer back to the text, and respond to questions before venturing further.
This book will delight students just beginning grammar.
The Grammar Island teacher manual includes the full text of the student book plus special boxes that contain tips and further questions for the instructor, pre- and post-tests, activities for further study, and wonderful original readings to keep the energy level charged with fun learning.
