The Blending Language Skills Simplified series helps students identify and practice their grammar with skill-specific activities. Students using this resource will gain a practical knowledge of standard speech patterns, increase self-esteem upon successful completion, and improve their performance on the grammar and usage sections of standardized tests. Lessons include invaluable features, such as off-the-page interactive activities, parent-involvement ideas, and journal-writing suggestions. Answers are provided at the back of the book.
The following elements make every lesson a cohesive learning experience:
• Pre-Activity—an interactive classroom idea that sets the stage for the lesson
• Activity—a variety of exercises that provide vocabulary and grammar practice followed by a writing assignment
• Post-Activity—an off-the-page suggestion for meaningful follow-up
• Extra—a related concept that leads to higher-level thinking
• Grammar Connection, Language Strategy, or Writing Tip—an explicit statement of relevant content
