Learning And Teaching English Grammar

For Language Arts courses in Elementary Education; Reading and Writing Methods in Middle School; and English Methods courses in secondary schools. This practical, brief paperback with hands-on activities is designed to "fill in the blanks" in preservice teachers' own knowledge of English grammar and to demonstrate a reliable method for teaching English grammar to elementary school students. It provides a solid foundation in the sociolinguistic and psycholinguistic aspects of grammar and grammar instruction, followed by step-by-step coverage of the basics of word and phrase development, and of the construction of the three or four types of sentences that English words can be used to create. In addition, coverage examines solutions to common usage problems faced by native speakers, nonstandard speakers, and ELL students.Birch, Barbara M. is the author of 'Learning And Teaching English Grammar', published 2004 under ISBN 9780130488343 and ISBN 0130488348.
