2.0 out of 5 stars Not well organized, not very comprehensive, July 30, 2010
This review is from: Basic Skills Better Sentence Structure Through Diagraming, Book 1 (Paperback)
This book is a fine review if you already know how to diagram sentences, and if you already have a comprehensive knowledge of grammar. It is NOT the book you want to use if you are trying to teach your 6th and 8th grade boys the art of diagramming. There is a LOT of assumed knowledge, and every chapter includes examples of grammar and diagramming techniques that have not yet been explained. It is very poorly organized. Unfortunately, I have not yet found a different book to recommend...

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for visual learners, August 18, 2006
This review is from: Basic Skills Better Sentence Structure Through Diagraming, Book 1 (Paperback)
My visual learner is thoroughly enjoying this book. Seeing the diagrams helps him to understand how the parts of a sentence work together. It makes grammar fun!

He's already looking forward to Book 2.

5.0 out of 5 stars Resurrecting a Lost Art, March 3, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Basic Skills Better Sentence Structure Through Diagraming, Book 1 (Paperback)
Diagraming helps the students to see how the sentence is constructed. One diagram is worth many words. This book is a must for students who want to understand the English language.
