Texts for Spring 2013:

Essential Linguistics: What You Need to Know to Teach Reading, ESL, Spelling, Phonics, and Grammar, by David E. Freeman and Yvonne Freeman (You may use an e-book version if you wish. Both Nook and Kindle versions are available. The Kindle version appears to be identical to the printed text. I have not examined the Nook version, but it is probably the same.) |

Essentials of Grammar: A Textbook for Teachers, Editors, Secretaries, Writers, and Other Semiwilling Curmudgeons, second edition, by Jeff Glauner (Available free for download.) |
Resources:

ENG 3321 Links |
|
|
Guide to Grammar and Writing . This is one of my favorite sites, and I recommend exploring it thoroughly. Be sure to take advantage of the interactive exercises that go with most pages. Links to them usually appear at the bottom of the page. |
|
|
Basic Sentence Type Maze for Essentials of Grammar (Determine which sentence pattern fits by answering a series of questions.) |
|
|
Simple, Compound, Complex? This page should help if you're not clear on this set of sentence types. (Compound-complex sentences are included, too.) There are links to several interactive exercises so you can test your knowledge. |
|
|
Diagramming Sentences This PowerPoint shows you the basics of creating Reed-Kellogg diagrams. (The page will be slow to open, so don't give up too soon. You will probably be asked to install a Microsoft download, but you do not seem to need it if you have PowerPoint on your computer. If you don't see a picture when the frame tells you to click one, or if you click a picture and nothing happens, just ignore the instruction and move on.) |
