Description
Strong language skills are essential to success in school and life. Knowing the elements of language and understanding how they work together greatly enhances all language-based abilities. Grammar Practice Simplified Book A is designed to familiarize students with the basic elements of a sentence. Students learn the difference between a sentence and a fragment, and to distinguish between a telling sentence and an asking sentence. They then proceed to nouns and verbs, with special focus on the verb "be". Finally, students are introduced to capitalization and punctuation in sentences, in names, in titles, and in days and months. Readability has been carefully controlled for younger students, but the approach and design make the book useful for older, language-delayed students or students who speak English as a second language. Answers are provided at the back of the book. Book A is Grades 2-3.
