This review is from: No Boring Practice, Please! Sentence Structure: Reproducible Practice Pages PLUS Easy-to-Score Quizzes That Give Kids Review in Kinds of Sentences, ... Passive Voice, and More (Teaching Resources) (Paperback)

Let's face it: grammar practice can be rather dull at times. This little workbook uses humor as the "spoonful of sugar that helps the medicine go down". It covers sentence fragments vs. complete sentences, compound sentences, complex sentences, active vs. passive voice, dangling modifiers, parallel structure, and pronoun-antecedent agreement. Highly recommended for teachers & home educators with late elementary/early middle school students.
