Enjoy learning English grammar . . . one scoop at a time!
Scoop 1: The Sentence: The Definition • The Ending Punctuation Mark • The Eight Parts of Speech • The Four Parts of a Sentence
Scoop 2: Nouns, Pronouns, and Prepositions
Scoop 3: Adjectives and Adverbs
Scoop 4: Verbs
Scoop 5: Capitalization
Scoop 6: Punctuation
Scoop 7: Special Words
In the tradition of Rebecca Elliott's Painless Grammar and William A. Sabin's Gregg Reference Manual, The Scoop on Good Grammar comprehensively presents the rules in a fun and easy-to-follow fashion, making learning about such things as the eight parts of speech, punctuation, phrases and clauses, and capitalization a sweet experience!
In every chapter-Exploration (The Sentence), Art and Invention (Nouns, Pronouns, and Prepositions), Food (Adjectives and Adverbs), Sports (Verbs), Classic Movies and TV (Capitalization), Poetry (Punctuation), and Travel (Special Words)-each example-packed lesson is paired with something familiar and memorable. For example, in Chapter 2: Art and Invention, Renoir's Luncheon of the Boating Party helps readers digest the definition of a noun.
The user-friendly table of contents, thorough index, abundant examples, eye-catching photographs and illustrations, engaging practice questions and quizzes, and fun facts throughout are carefully arranged to help readers learn how to speak and write English with ease!
Getting the scoop on good grammar is elementary: 7 chapters + 26 lessons + 24 quizzes = another confident speaker and writer in this world-YOU!
