PRODUCT SUMMARY


This series of short, instructional clips identifies some common grammar errors and takes the mystery right out of them! From eliminating run-on sentences to cutting out dangling modifiers, each clip utilizes a variety of examples and careful explanations to cast a helpful light on these topics for students. In addition, discover how to spot and fix faulty comparisons, eliminate double negatives, avoid redundancy and learn to choose the right words. It always helps to know the difference between "they're," "their" and "there," and even between the adjective "good" and the adverb "well." A solid understanding of these grammar concepts will help to ensure that what you write or say is clear and concise! A teacher's guide is included & available online.
