Answer Difficult Grammar Questions and Plan Fun Grammar Lessons!

Each chapter explains a major grammar concept in a detailed, down-to-earth manner, enabling teachers to plan their lessons with confidence and clarity. Furthermore, the lesson ideas are diverse in approach, and offer variations for different levels of English.
You Can Teach Grammar covers each of the parts of speech in detail. In addition, the book addresses areas of persistent difficulty for students: sentence structure, comparatives, verb forms (tenses, gerunds, infinitives) and determiners (including the devilish definite and indefinite articles). The topics are covered in four ways. First, the deep grammatical concepts are laid out, allowing teachers to clarify the nuances of each grammatical element. Second, the book includes self-practice quizzes, allowing teachers to verify their own comprehension of the topic. Third, any particularly “sticky” problems that are prone to occur in the classroom are addressed. Finally, teaching ideas for each grammar element are given.
