Grammar 1 & 2

Grammar 1 & 2

Tutor: Jennifer Larson

I am using Winston Grammar as the spine for our lessons. Here is their website: https://www.winstongrammar.com/

Here is a description of their methodology:

The purpose of The Winston Grammar Program is to help students understand the structure of language and comprehend the principles of traditional grammar. The Winston Program uses innovative means to achieve conventional ends. It does away with the traditional grammar textbook, lecture approach, and heavy emphasis on memorization. Instead, it gives students a set of color-coded clue cards and a book of exercises, which together generate multi-sensory activities:

  • Moving

  • Seeing

  • Hearing

  • Speaking

Every part of speech has its own colored card. On the front is the name and the marking to use in the workbook. On the back side of the card are clues for helping the student determine if that card is the correct one. Repeated use of the cards results in the student’s acquisition of knowledge with little or no memorization required.

Parents - If grammar is a weak area for you, please consider purchasing the complete package with the teacher's manual for yourself.
