The Grammar Handbook 2 is designed tofollow The Phonics Handbook and the Grammar Handbook 1. It provide extensive photocopiable material and a wealth of practical advice for teaching children in their third school year.
The Grammar Handbook 2 is intended to:
- Introduce new elements of Grammar,
- Teach new spelling patterns systematically,
- develop dictionary and thesaurus skills,
- Improve vocabulary and comprehension, and
- reinforce the teaching in the grammar Handbook 1.
The teaching is multisensory and active. It place emphasis on consolidating the children's learning and helping them to apply their skills. Each part of speech is taught with its own action and colours. The actions enliven the teaching, and make the learning easier. The Colours, which are useful for identifying parts of speech in sentences, match those used by Montessori Schools. Like The Phonics Handbook, The Grammar Handbooks 1 and 2 provide all the essential teaching ideas. They can either be used alone, or with the valuable support of the Jolly Grammar Big Books and 2.
This second edition includes the new spelling pattern <ear>,as in 'dear', and has simplified the introduction of the /zh/ sound in the <si> spelling lesson
