We will have weekly grammar lessons and quizzes. Expectation is this will improve skills, writing abilities, and test scores.
We will start with Punctuation : end marks, commas, semicolons, colons, apostrophes, quotation marks, hyphens, and parentheses.
Then we will focus on the Parts of Speech: nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, prepositions, conjunctions, and interjections.
Then the focus will turn to Parts of a Sentence and Phrases: sentences and fragments, kinds of sentences, subjects and predicates, subjects in unusual positions, direct objects, indirect objects, predicate words, compound sentence parts, prepositional phrases, appositives, verbals: gerunds, participles, & infinitives, and diagramming.
