Review and Giveaway: Reader’s Digest Grammar Books

Do you ever struggle with teaching grammar to your kids?

We use Spell to Write & Read and Pathway Readers as our primary English spines. These are great programs that I always highly recommend, but where do you go when you need a little extra explanation of a concept? Where do you turn when your child needs help remembering an easily mixed up set of words? Where do you find the answer to help your child understand a nuance of punctuation?

Reader's Digest has the answer to your dilemma in these two reference works:

My Grammar and I… Or Should That Be Me?

1. Spelling and Confusables
2. Parts of Speech
3. Sentence Structure
4. Punctuation
5. Odds and Ends

Write (Or Is That “Right”?) Every Time

1. Grammar
2. Spelling
3. Punctuation

Both are fun additions to our reference library and companions to our chosen English curriculum. They give a different perspective on English and grammar. These books are filled with interesting facts, explanations, and rhymes to help you remember the rules.
