The Basic, Not So Boring Series is my classroom choice!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I am a fifth grade teacher always looking for creative and interesting material to use in my classroom. I find myself easily becoming bored with traditional materials which is why I chose not to use it. Just by chance, I came across the Grammar & Usage activities book that really caught my attention. It is easy to read and understand (not only for the teacher, but more importantly, for the student. Each activity is interesting, one that any 9-11 year old student would find fun, but it also teaches a very particular lesson. It covers Language Arts topics ranging from parts of speech to editing one's own work. I also have other books from this series; however, the one downfall I find is that it does not offer any suggestions on how to modify the activities for high /low end learners. I believe teachers (including myself) would appreciate such modifications considering the variety of students we now find in today's classrooms. All in all, I am glad I bought this book and can not wait to use it in my classroom!
