Nelson the Noun is the resident noun expert in Grammaropolis. Visit
the Noun Office and learn from him! It’s book one of the Meet the
Parts of Speech series, in which the eight parts of speech are
personified based on the roles they play in the sentence. Nelson
takes a break from his stressful day job, leaving the Noun Office
in the hands of Roger the pronoun. After discovering that vacation
isn’t what he’d hoped it would be, Nelson returns just in time
to fix the confusion Roger has caused in his absence. Clear and
informative back matter includes textbook-style definitions and
usage examples of common and proper nouns, concrete and abstract
nouns, collective nouns, and compound nouns. In Grammaropolis,
adverbs don't just modify verbs; adverbs are bossy. They tell the
verbs where to go, when to leave, and how to get there. A pronoun
doesn't just replace a noun; Roger the pronoun is a shady character
who's always trying to trick Nelson the noun into giving up his
spot. The Meet the Parts of Speech series uses the mechanics of
character and story (plot, motivation, setting, etc.) to breathe
life into what has traditionally been unengaging subject matter.
Our story-based approach combines traditional instruction with
original narrative content, which appeals to different learning
styles, increases both engagement and retention, and encourages
students to make a deeper connection with the parts of speech and
punctuation marks.
