Grammar is an important part of everyday life. If you stop to think about it, it's something you've been working on ever since your child's first word!

As your student strives to become a better reader, writer, and communicator, it's even more important that he has a strong foundation in grammar and vocabulary. The chart below is taken directly from state standards, and shows the progression of grammar skills from kindergarten through 2nd grade. This is what we hope your student is able to do when they reach third grade.

Note: This website contains some grammar information which is NOT required for 3rd graders. We included it for the benefit of those who will be ready to move on to harder concepts. Even so, there are instances in which we could have been even more specific and chose not to do so, opting for the simpler explanation instead. We'll save some of the learning for middle school. :)
