Yellow Workbook, along with the accompanying Key and the Core
Instructor Text, make up a full year of Grammar for the
Well-Trained Mind: a complete course that takes students from basic
definitions ("A noun is the name of a person, place, thing, or
idea") through advanced sentence structure and analysis, all the
grammar skills needed to write and speak with eloquence and
confidence. This innovative program combines the three essential
elements of language learning: understanding and memorizing rules
(prescriptive teaching), repeated exposure to examples of how those
rules are used (descriptive instruction), and practice using those
rules in exercises and in writing (practical experience). Each
year, parents and teachers go through the dialogue, rules, and
examples in the Core Instructor Text; students follow along in the
Workbook. This repetition solidifies the concepts, definitions, and
examples in the student's mind. There are four Workbooks. Each
Workbook contains the same rules and examples, but four completely
different sets of exercises and assignments, allowing students to
develop a wide-ranging knowledge of how the rules and examples are
put to use in writing. The Workbook comes with its own Key,
providing not only answers, but also explanations for the
parent/instructor, and guidance as to when the answers might be
ambiguous (as, in English, they often are). All of the rules
covered, along with the repeated examples for each, are assembled
for ongoing reference in The Grammar Guidebook. Every step of the
sentence diagramming process is gathered for reference, along with
illustrations, in The Diagramming Dictionary. These will become the
student's indispensable guide to writing through high school, into
college and beyond. Step-by-step instruction takes students from
the most basic concepts through advanced grammatical concepts such
as modal and hortative verbs and multiple functions of noun
clauses. Extensive diagramming exercises reinforce the rules and
help technical and visual learners to understand and use the
English language effectively. Each step of the diagramming process
is illustrated and thoroughly explained to the student. Text for
examples and exercises are drawn from great works of literature, as
well as from well-written nonfiction texts in science, mathematics,
and the social sciences. *Regular review is built into each year of
work. One of four non-sequential workbooks, each containing new
exercises that allow students to practice and apply the grammar
principles under study.
