Grammar Island introduces, in a simple fashion, the full four-level grammar analysis of (1) parts of speech, (2) parts of the sentence, (3) phrases, and (4) clauses. Using color to reinforce the lessons, the book offers grammar in child-friendly ways, with an array of strategies to make sophisticated material dynamic and fun. Each page focuses on a single concept, and the teaching approach is to read together with the students, talk about the concepts, ask questions, refer back to the text, and respond to questions before venturing further. This book will delight children just beginning grammar.
Grammar Island is so cute that it makes Parts of Speech fun to learn! Also, it is nice and simple. It’s an educational book that uses poems and color-coding to teach parts of speech. Even though I’m in 7th grade, I liked reading the poems in this book. They were fun.
