In this Middle School Grammar class, students will explore grammar rules and usage through an engaging and structured curriculum. Learners in this class will create an interactive notebook through 36 weekly lessons. A new lesson will be featured each week so feel free to pop in and out anytime or use this class as a full academic year of grammar instruction. Each session will feature a Google Slides presentation with notes, teacher modeling, and independent practice. Students will actively participate in a class discussion about the grammar lesson and add examples to their interactive notebook. Students will also enjoy interaction with me and their classmates through games and small group activities.
