Grammar Galaxy

Grammar Galaxy: Nebula Mission Manual is the workbook that is part of a complete language arts curriculum for beginning readers. The Grammar Galaxy: Nebula text (required and purchased separately) uses short, comical stories to teach concepts in a memorable way. Students discover the havoc that ensues when the evil Gremlin tampers with the English language. Fiction books are labeled as nonfiction and begin coming to life. A re- virus is introduced into the computer system causing things to be repeated endlessly. Rhyming poems and books are ruined when Word Harmony matches words that don't rhyme.The royal English children invite students to become fellow grammar guardians in order to save the galaxy from crises like these. After teachers read one of the mysteries to their students from the separate text, young guardians complete a corresponding mission with three short steps in this manual. The Grammar Galaxy: Nebula Mission Manual is especially appropriate for first and second graders who are beginning to read and write. Missions for Advanced Guardians make it flexible enough to use with students through sixth grade. Missions cover: *reading skill development *literary concepts *vocabulary *spelling *grammar *composition and *speaking The Grammar Galaxy: Nebula Mission Manual is a great choice for homeschoolers, teachers, and parents: *Whose student has begun to read and write (use a good phonics and handwriting program first) *Who want their student to have excellent reading, writing, and speaking skills *Who want their student to spend less time doing seat work and more time reading and writing.
