Grammar Town Mouse and Country Mouse (Level 2) ***Students will have homework. Fix It! Grammar: Robin Hood is a fun and engaging way to teach learners English grammar. Students will go sentence by sentence in an ongoing story and hunt for grammar errors, fixing them along the way. Learners will label the parts of each sentence and rewrite the sentences correctly. Students will stay engaged in the process because the story is ongoing, and who doesn't want to find out how the story ends? Fix It! Grammar Robin Hood is Level 3 in the series. This course is ideal for students who have already completed levels one (The Nose Tree) and two (Town Mouse and Country Mouse). IEW recommends that all students begin with Level 1, The Nose Tree, as it is the first in a series of books that build upon one another. Fix It! Grammar: Robin Hood builds upon Town Mouse and Country Mouse. Students must have the student book for Fix It!
