Designed as a second semester course, this Gross-Out Grammar Book 2 aligns with Revolting Writing. In this series, Jennifer Cabrera embraces the common young teen response to writing: “gross!” If your student responds to writing assignments as though they are infectious diseases, this engaging course may be just the remedy. While the Grammar Book 1 emphasizes grammar in context, Book 2 moves your student toward writing skills. After reviewing apostrophes, some punctuation, and syllabication, the book guides students in writing a short essay, fixing their writing with proofreading and editing techniques, figurative writing, and an intro to poetry. Consumable, 124 pages, softcover. ~ Ruth
