ENGLISH GRADESMART TEXTBOOKS

Writing and grammar are two indispensable tools for the English student. Learning grammar alone will not teach a student how to write; neither will learning writing alone teach a student how to write well. Mrs. Nash's English and writing courses are successful at teaching because they:

  • are logical and organized.
  • carefully develop student skills.
  • integrate grammar and writing.
  • are ethical.
  • are continuous from grade level to grade level.
  • develop mastery by practice.
  • clarify what skills a student needs to strengthen.
  • teach and apply Biblical truth.

"This is an excellent course and I really, really love it....you get such wonderful results!!!!"
(Holly Cameron, The Old Schoolhouse Magazine)

This hands-on, consumable textbook is a wonderful teaching tool for any student who has never written an essay or research report before as well as students who have never learned the correct format for these types of compositions. The textbook’s carefully guided sequence of teaching is a natural method of learning that takes the headache out of writing and breaks it into unique and manageable units. By the completion of the one year course, your student will have progressed from writing beginning compositions to intermediate compositions. Your student will also have acquired SAT/ACT essay writing skills.

The textbook is divided into two units with one unit for each type of composition. Each unit begins with a chapter of Bible-based Ethics Skills teaching your student about writing choices and the values his/her writing should promote. Subsequent chapters alternate between Writing Skills and Grammar Skills with PRACTICE exercises. The Writing Skills chapters teach about the types of paragraphs; the topics of paragraphs; the individual sentences in paragraphs (including their order and content); the smooth flow of words, sentences, and paragraphs; and other details.

The text initially uses careful guidance for the daily writing. By the end of the week a complete composition is ready. Composition topics are predetermined so that your student can focus on learning writing and grammar skills without the anxiety of having to determine his/her own writing topics. Editing instructions and grading charts are also included.

"I just wanted to let you know how wonderful the report and essay writing textbook is! I only happened upon this via an email that I don't even know how I received. It's a God thing. I have been searching the internet for this exact type of instruction. I have been stumped in getting this concept across to my 2 children. Thank you Lord for this wonderful tool and for those who wrote it! (Lori, Maryland)
