Easy Grammar Grade 3 2007When Wanda Phillips began teaching 7th grade, she realized the
correlation between the textbooks children were using, and resulting
lack of grammatical knowledge. Easy Grammar & Daily Grams don't
follow the standard textbook approach of teaching and moving on to the
next subject with no review of previously learned material. Rather,
incremental development is coupled with extensive review and
refreshment, and the prepositional approach is utilized for increased
retention and ease in identifying parts of speech. Simple and
effective, Easy Grammar & Daily Grams have helped hundreds of
children to finally understand the technicalities of the English
language! Student Workbook and test booklet also available. |

Writing Strands: Challenging Writing Projects for Homeschoolers, Level 3This group of assignments in the series called Writing Strands is designed to give homeschooled third level students a grounding in the very complicated process of giving others their thoughts in written form. This level is designed for students who, in public school, would be considered ready for third or even up to seventh grade. Of course, third and seventh grade students would write much differently, but that is not a problem. Both can experience learning the skills presented in this level.
