Mejore su gramática con Fix It Robin Hood IEW Libro 3 (semanas 1 a 16)

This class covers elementary school grammar.  Students will learn to label parts of speech and to edit mistakes in an ongoing story.  This method of repeatedly correcting mistakes in longer passages is often more effective than working with isolated sentences.  Students engage with the story and look forward to what is coming next.   The publisher, Institute for Excellence in Writing, has carefully laid out the entire book to address common mistakes in an incremental and repetitive way. 

In January 2022, IEW reworked their entire grammar series.  This class is now based on the "new" book.  If you buy Robin Hood from IEW after December 2021, they will send you the new book. https://iew.com/shop/products/fix-it%E2%84%A2-grammar-level-3-robin-hood-student-book

You can see samples of this book and also take a grammar placement test on their website if you are unsure of where to place your child.  I recommend students have at least a little bit of experience with Subject and Verb before beginning this class.  Often students have taken Book 1 and 2 but it is not completely necessary.  


I love teaching grammar this way, and I have added my own unique coloring system to help students see the parts of speech.  I use the same system in all of my writing, editing, and grammar classes, so if you take multiple classes with me, it all fits together seamlessly.  All of my classes follow IEW methods and more than cover many Common Core standards.  I am very encouraging of all levels of skill.  Have you ever heard anyone cheer for commas and capital letters?  I get excited about proper grammar!  

This is a faster pace than IEW recommends,  however,  I believe the faster your children complete the lessons, the more they will stay engaged in the story.  

IEW has several grammar books, which all have 30 weeks of content, with the suggestion of covering a sentence each day.  I prefer to cover a full "week" of 4 sentences in one sitting.  It is a faster pace, but I find most children can follow the story better (and so stay more engaged) when we work through the story faster.  Your child will be just over halfway through this book in 8 weeks.  We will finish Week 16 in this class, leaving 14 "weeks" to go.  

Students should definitely copy each sentence into their own notebook as IEW recommends, but I don't really check this.
