Sentence diagramming, learning the technical terms for parts of language, direct writing instruction... does it REALLY work? NO!The way most of us have been taught grammar -- sentence diagramming, direct instruction, separate writing classes -- isn't actually effective in making us better writers. In fact, it can create paralysis for some people (like me!) and make writing WORSE.
So how should we teach writing and grammar? In this video I summarize years of research in writing and grammar and discuss how it should be taught. Next, I talk about the stages of writing and how each stage builds on the next. Most importantly, I combine Charlotte Mason's methods/philosophy with current teaching methods to meet your child where they're at and confidently teach writing and grammar at home.
