Traditional grammar instruction often focuses too much on what's
right or what's wrong, hiding the true power of conventions—the
creation of meaning, purpose, and effect. Instead of hammering high
school students with the mistakes they should avoid, Jeff Anderson,
Travis Leech, and Holly Durham suggest exploring grammar through
the celebration of author's purpose and craft. In Patterns of
Power: Teaching Grammar Through Reading and Writing, Grades 9–12,
they invite you to create an environment in which writers thrive
while studying and appreciating the beauty, effects, and meaning of
grammar. Inside this book, teachers will find a comprehensive
explanation of the brain-based Patterns of Power invitational
process, as well as: 35 standards-aligned lesson sets built around
practical, engaging, inquiry-based methods that take deeper dives
into grammar and craft than any worksheet, quiz, or editing
exercise ever could A variety of high-interest model texts from
authentic and diverse sources, including excerpts from classic and
current novels, memoirs, plays, graphic novels, poems, and media
Real-life classroom examples and tips with suggestions for
scaffolding new learning and ideas for how to use the lessons in AP
courses Templates for extended application, easy to locate
printables, and ready-to-go visuals Additional Models for Further
Study for extension opportunities in every lesson set An entire
chapter devoted to helping high school writers master citations in
research With hundreds of teach-tomorrow resources and
implementation supports such as quick-reference guides, specific
applications to reading instruction, and soundtrack suggestions to
infuse the joy of music into grammar instruction, Patterns of
Power gives you everything you need to inspire your high
school writers to move beyond limitation and into the endless
possibilities of what they can do as writers. The Patterns of Power
series also includes Patterns of Power: Inviting Adolescent Writers
into the Conventions of Language, Grades 6-8, Patterns of Power:
Inviting Young Writers into the Conventions of Language, Grades
1-5, Patterns of Wonder: Inviting Emergent Writers to Play with the
Conventions of Language, PreK-1, and Patterns of Power en

Spanish, Grades 1-5.
