Description:
1st Grade Grammar and Penmanship teaches students to communicate clearly in writing. Through penmanship instruction, students will learn how to form all lowercase and uppercase manuscript letters. Each penmanship Lesson reinforces the letters, phonograms, and words that are introduced in the corresponding Phonics and Spelling Lesson. Through grammar instruction, students will learn the purpose of words, sentences, and punctuation. Students begin by learning about parts of speech and parts of sentences and build up to whole sentences and punctuation rules. Throughout the course, students will construct their own writing handbook. The handbook will include examples of manuscript letters as well as grammar terms and rules. The course culminates in students writing correspondences to authentically practice grammar and penmanship.
