Languages : en
Pages : 218

Book Description
Learn English grammar the way we use the English language: by following the rules by which we use it. In this book, English grammar is taught in small, discrete lessons, concentrating on one aspect of grammar at a time, and supported by worksheets on which students can practice. The course is derived from the structure of sentential logic, and the maxim of Horace, who said, "Whatever you want to teach, be brief." In this course students learn to understand and grammatically structure their sentences by means of a sequential application of the rules of grammar, using the same methods learned in mathematics and logic. In this course, grammar is taught by using it in its everyday and playful sentences, likening the rules of grammar to the rules of a game. A course used by students for almost a decade, the Grammar Game capitalizes on every student's desire to learn and understand what he or she can do to learn a putatively difficult subject. This book is the beginning of a revolution in education where the learning of languages can now be put on an equal plane with the much sought after subjects of mathematics and science in our culture, -and that is where it should be. Also look for The Grammar Game Workbook Answer Key which provides all the answers for all of the worksheets in The Grammar Game, available on line from Lulu Publishing, at www.lulu.com.
