Publisher Description:
This fun, highly-effective 160-page book teaches students in Grades 6-8 grammar, punctuation, spelling, capitalization, and critical reading in a standards-based thinking approach instead of the usual drill and practice found in competing products.

Make your student(s) the editor in chief! With these consumable books children edit punctuation, grammar, content, and usage; learning while they're having fun. Each lesson starts with a short instructional sequence that is followed by four practice edits. These edits provide an error-filled article or letter with an illustration and caption (no errors in these). The number and type of errors is supplied for each edit. There is also space for the student to write out a corrected version. There are mini-reviews every three lessons plus longer reviews midway and at the end of the book. All answers are in the back of the book. A previous edition of this series had two books at each skill level. These have now been combined with added instruction into a single book at each level.
