There is no such thing as too much practice: whether it is writing, grammar, and reading, spelling or vocabulary skills. This high interest binder builds skills incrementally. By inviting students to show what they know in a variety of formats, these stimulating lessons will enable students, many for the first time, to actually enjoy the learning process. The philosophy of this program is twofold (1) master and basics and (2) improve critical thinking skills. The binder includes 100 reproducible activities with answer keys. There is a high-utility table of contents that can be used as a scope and sequence. No teacher preparation is required with this pick-and-choose format designed to accompany and extend student textbooks. The lessons may also used for homework. Sample topics include: Dangling/misplaced modifiers, Point of view shifts, Action verbs, Sentence combining, Topic sentence, Simile, Oxymoron, Sonnet, Imagery, and Mnemonic devices
