Real Grammar: Understand English. Clear and Simple.

Produktbeschreibung

Real Grammar is about understanding the English that people use in real life. It is about understanding how English speakers think and why we say things the way we do. When you understand it, you can use it. Real Grammar features: Simple explanations Clear diagrams Real-life examples Meaningful practice Traditional grammar books give rules to remember and follow in order to make correct sentences. Real Grammar explains what the parts mean so that you can understand what people say and make sentences that are not only correct, but meaningful. We use words and parts of words (grammar) because words have meaning, and we want to express our ideas clearly to communicate. With Real Grammar, we look at the meanings of these grammatical parts. These parts have very basic meanings that can often be used in a wide range of situations. Sometimes English sentences might seem strange, and you ask yourself 'why?' When you know the basic meanings, why these grammatical parts are being used makes a lot more sense. Real Grammar is grammar for communication. Real Grammar as a Teaching Resource >The key is to get the student to understand how English speakers think and how the language works.This is done by: Presenting grammar concepts clearly. Comparing the new grammar concept to similar grammar concepts the student is already aware of. This helps the students understand the similarities and differences, developing their ability to apply grammar in a way that communicates their thoughts clearly. Expanding into uses in other situations. We present other contexts that a part of speech is used in, guiding the student to reason, come to their own conclusions, and discover why. Real Grammar includes explanations and practice activities that can be taught as grammar lessons or can be easily integrated into other English classes. * Printed in black and white
