    How We Teach English 3

    Grammar Skills

    The first grammar chapter provides a foundation in sentence structure and the following grammar chapters methodically introduce each part of speech. The thorough step-by-step instruction and frequent review reinforces grammatical concepts.

    The Writing Process

    The writing process used in every writing chapter is plan, draft, revise, proofread, and publish. The careful explanation of the steps and involvement of peers and teachers through collaboration help students strengthen and refine their writing skills.

    Biblical Worldview Shaping

    The themes friendship, authority, work, celebration and people are used to address areas of a student’s life where they frequently communicate. These themes help cultivate an appreciation for the power of language and guidance for using communication to serve others.

    Research

    Students will learn how to conduct short research projects and take notes on the information. The Study and Research chapter was updated to include accessing and discerning reliable online sources as well as learning about internet safety and electronic catalogs.
