Book 1 of the Rules of the Game series starts with the basics! Students’ first lesson covers nouns and then builds skills from the ground up. Lessons are concisely written directly to the student. Examples are provided for students to learn and imitate. Lessons are short, ranging from 3-6 pages, allowing your student to take this worktext at their own pace. After progressing through the 19 basic grammar skills, the last lesson puts all these skills to work through Comprehensive Exercises. This is the longest lesson in the worktext. Concepts covered in Book 1 are basic parts of speech, punctuation and capitalization, subject-verb agreement, interjections, sentence fragments, and more. 99 pgs., paperback. ~Rebecca
