RULES OF THE GAME 2 Student Workbook (Grades 7-8)

Description

Lessons on topics such as sentence fragments or parts of speech begin with several pithy examples, and follow them with directed questions that help students arrive at a grammatical principle or rule. Following the questions and a brief discussion, each lesson has a Definition, set in a box for emphasis. Lessons also contain boxed Hints that aid students in understanding and retaining points of grammar. Exercises are both traditional and innovative, and provide practice as well as increase general knowledge. Students read sentences and pick out various points of grammar, but they also follow sentence patterns, write their own sentences, choose effective modifiers, or combine sentences. Book 2 teaches direct and indirect objects, linking verbs, predicate nouns and adjectives, appositives, objects of the preposition, functions of the prepositional phrase, semicolons, and colons.
