Great Grammar Blog!

One of the initiatives in my school is to focus on better grammar instruction to help bolster ACT English scores.  In my research of innovative ways to explain grammar usage rules, I stumbled upon a terrific blog from Grammar Girl. In this blog, Grammar Girl promises to offer "quick and dirty" grammar tips and she delivers!  The lessons are fun, multidimensional, and accessible to English novies and experts alike.  The site offers up new tips daily and is searchable as well for those times when you need to check your writing.  Followable on Facebook, Grammar Girl has many fans and is gaining in popularity.  With the great tips, examples, and lessons this blog is sure to be more than just a fun fad.

  1. Michelle, I am so excited to check your blog. Since I teach 8th grade at-level and honors English I feel your blog will help guide me and my colleagues towards the expectations of freshman English. This grammar site is a great start!

  2. What a great recommendation! I'm sending this on to the English teachers in my building, so they can recommend it to their students.
