Grammar Workshop, Tools for Writing
The consumable Student Edition helps students master grade-appropriate conventions of standard English through instruction with models, ample practice, and immediate application of skills. Divided into six units, each level focuses on teaching the conventions of standard English–grammar, usage, and mechanics–as well as, the writing process and grammar in the context of reading and writing. Each lesson has the same three-step instructional sequence:
- Learn features skill instruction with clear explanations and modeling
- Practice includes three scaffolded activities, each building on the prior and increasing in difficulty
- Write lets students apply what they learned by revising sentences, combining sentences, and writing on their own
Engaging new online games and activities will enhance student learning.
Unit Reviews and Unit Tests in standardized-test format monitor progress.
