Students will:
Demonstrate command of the conventions of standard English grammar and usage when writing or speaking.

Explain the function of phrases and clauses in general and their function in specific sentences.

Place phrases and clauses within a sentence, recognizing and correcting misplaced and dangling modifiers.*

Demonstrate command of the conventions of standard English capitalization, punctuation, and spelling when writing.

Use a comma to separate coordinate adjectives (e.g., It was a fascinating, enjoyable movie but not He wore an old[,] green shirt).

Spell correctly.

Use knowledge of language and its conventions when writing, speaking, reading, or listening.

Use context (e.g., the overall meaning of a sentence or paragraph; a word's position or function in a sentence) as a clue to the meaning of a word or phrase.

Grammar can be a challenging concept to teach, but being a National Board Certified English teacher who has taught grades 5 through 12 and College Composition Classes makes ALL the difference.  Additionally my Masters in Education includes a Reading Endorsement, which is a fancy way of saying that I have the skills and knowledge to help learners who struggle or learn differently. 

Our organization has various teachers who facilitate these classes, but the curriculum is developed by the teacher described above.
