Language Usage Overview

Knowing that students must have a strong command of our language in order to succeed in school and in life, the Language Usage Curriculum was developed.

The Language Usage titles provide tools that assist students in mastering the written word and identifying grammar pitfalls such as subject/verb disagreement, tense shifts, double negatives, and fragments. Each of these titles also addresses sentence mechanics, including capitalization, punctuation, and diagramming. Phonetic and visual introduction of new words and word sounds and multiple exposures to correct word usage give students a solid grammar foundation that will extend into their writing and speaking skills.
