Unleasing Your Language Wizards: A Brain-based Approach to Effecive Editing and Writing, CourseSmart eTextbook

Promote a sophisticated and effective writing style built on strong foundations of grammar, punctuation, sentence structure, and sentence fluency in your classroom!

 

Students of all ages have mastered an immense body of knowledge about English in an oral environment. Unleashing Your Language Wizards uses that existing knowledge to help students acquire a more mature, sophisticated, effective writing style built on strong foundations of grammar, punctuation, sentence structure, and sentence fluency.

 

Leaving behind traditional pedagogy that imposes arcane rules, rote memorization, and endless drills that have little interaction with existing competencies, this first edition book breaks new ground by developing a research-based, active-learning approach to teaching lasting sentence management skills by tapping into students’ natural learning abilities.

 

Unleashing Your Language Wizards is written for pre-service and in-service teachers, grades 3-12, who want to provide their students with lifelong skills and approaches that will help them conquer their written language issues. Instructors are provided with basic principles, specific examples, and sample activities, all of which teach the most important brain-based language concepts from a variety of different angles and approaches.
