About the Book

This collection of simple to use, multi-sensory games and activities will jumpstart pupils’ understanding of grammar in action. If you are one of the thousands of teachers who feels insecure about how to teach grammar engagingly, and perhaps also lack confidence in your own grammatical knowledge, then this is also the perfect book for you. Fun games will focus first on helping children hear the difference various types of grammar can make followed by activities to help them understand what different effects you can create with grammar, rather than dwelling on arid naming of parts. Technical terms will only be introduced once the children have established what the various features can do, with a particular focus on those terms that really help children discuss what makes language coherent and effective. By the time the children are asked to use the terminology, they will have a real grasp of what it’s good for. It will prepare children for any grammar tests on the horizon in an engaging way so that they love playing with words and spinning sentences to make ideas dance. And, of course, they will be able to name the parts if that is what is required. Jumpstart Grammar will celebrate the joys of language, and coherent expression; of finding just the right words or phrases to express what you want to say.

Table of Contents:
1. Introduction 2. The things: nouns 3. The actions: verbs and tense 4. The links: conjunctions 5. Sentences 6. Punctuation 7. Cohesion including subject and object, formal and informal, active and passive

Review :
"...Jumpstart! Grammar is a very worthwhile addition to any teacher's resource collection. Here, there is an activity there for every contingency - the knack is in making the time to trawl through the masses of suggestions. However, that time is well worth investing in this book, and it should prove an excellent support to teachers of all levels of grammar expertise." - Teaching English, Phil Kendall, Holden Clough Primary School
