MELINDA - 2nd grade teacher

I love this resource and how it takes the grammar skills and puts them into authentic texts. The sequence is the same for each skill so my students already ‘know the routine’ and can focus on the skill.

CRISTINA - 3rd grade teacher

This was a wonderful resource to help incorporate grammar into my reading and writing curriculum in an effective, but low-stress way. The students were engaged by the lesson slides and activities. They were able to apply the lessons and activities to their own writing, which has made a big difference in their knowledge and usage of grammar.

LISA - 4th grade TEACHER

I just completed my first whole week using this grammar curriculum and I am in love! The lessons were easy to implement and super clear for students. Every piece is golden—the Google slides, anchor charts, Boom Cards, revise and edit checklist, and assessment rubric. My kids enjoyed every piece, and I think this is going to make a world of difference for my students this year!

JODI - 5th grade teacher

This has everything you need to teach grammar and writing, all laid out day by day. I like that the writing workshop keeps all the students together. It provides short, daily grammar lessons based on mentor sentences. Students practice writing their own sentences modeled after the mentor sentence to reinforce the grammar skill. They also love the weekly Boom Cards. Thanks for providing everything needed to teach grammar and writing!
