Easy Grammar

"Wanda Phillips used the prepositional approach and combined it with various strategies for effective teaching.  She also added review both on a daily basis (Daily Grams) and cumulatively at the end of each unit (included in Easy Grammar texts). “My students began to like English because it made sense, and their scores improved remarkably,”  Wanda shares.  The Easy Grammar teaching texts and Daily Grams review texts were written because she wanted to share this very simple but effective method with others.  “I realized that students throughout the nation could benefit by using this approach,”  Phillips notes.  “I began writing my program into texts because of the need to help children learn to speak and to write properly.  This was the basis for text development, and it continues to be my mission.”"

I have used Easy Grammar products with both of my school aged sons for a couple of years. It is easy to understand and easy to teach. You just have to keep in mind that it is a grammar only program, not complete language arts. Because of that fact, we recently switched to more well rounded English programs. But for teaching grammar, this program works well . (For those of you who are interested, Easy Grammar does not teach diagramming).
