  • Recognizing and Verbalizing Correct Grammar

80 pages
Interest Age: 4 to 8
ISBN: 9781866143395

The purpose of these worksheets is to strengthen the use of correct grammar. Many young children recognize correct grammar as opposed to incorrect grammar, but they have not participated in repetitious practice that would allow them to use the correct grammar as a part of their speaking pattern.

This 80 page book provides extensive, repetitious practice in recognizing common grammatical errors. The technique used in recognizing errors is to present both a correct and an incorrect statement that are basically the same except for a grammatical error in one statement. This comparison usually triggers recognition of the correct grammatical structure. Each lesson has three pairs of correct/incorrect statements for each cartoon illustration, with four delightful illustrations on each page.

An instructor's worksheet is provided for each student worksheet. This manual worksheet lists all the comparative statements, enabling the teacher to use the unit without prior preparation. This guide not only serves as a manual for the professional but also informs the parents about the teaching technique used to help a child develop correct grammar and will provide instructions that will allow the parents to repeat the lesson at home.

In instances where students have not been exposed to certain grammatical structures, they may not be able to distinguish between correct and incorrect statements. In such instances, the students should be told the correct answers until they develop this recognizition. These same activities should then be repeated until the students easily recognize when an error has been made.
