A partner to the Grammarama I class, this class continues building and reinforcing understanding of core grammatical concepts in preparation for middle and high school. We will continue to use the grammar workbook by Evan-Moor titled Grammar and Punctuation, Grade 6, completing the second half. I have used this book in my work teaching English grammar for the last year or so, and I love it. I have found it to be clear and thorough with engaging, fun exercises.

We will begin part II at with defining adjectives and adverbs. Next, we will examine prepositional phrases and the different roles they can play in a sentence,  and then move on to studying different forms of punctuation and other important grammatical concepts (for a full list, see the class-by-class breakdown below.) The workbook is organized into 'rules" and devotes a chapter to each rule. After each rule, the book offers varied and fun exercises designed to reinforce each concept. We will read through each rule, and then we will work together through the exercises, completing the second half of the workbook.
