Grammar I
Course Expectations for Grammar I:
Grammar I meets two times per week and is a full year course. Students will gain a basic understanding of the eight parts of speech recognizing nouns, verbs, pronouns, adjectives, adverbs, prepositions, conjunctions, and interjections. In this class, students will memorize Being Verbs, Helping Verbs, Linking Verbs, 10 various lists of pronouns, and 48 prepositions through frequent class recitation, games, and quizzes that will prepare them for standard aptitude tests. Students will master basic diagramming and will understand the role each part of speech has in the construction of sentences. Vocabulary will be studied to extend the student's ability for better sentence structure.
Minimum Expectations:
• Parents are expected to be fully engaged in the process of their child's comprehending and practicing the grammatical concepts taught in this class.
• Parents will assume all responsibility for making sure homework assignments are done on time.
• There will be a required independent study component to this class which makes up for the lack of classroom time.
• Students will attend class regularly and participate in the discussion. Prior notice of all absences is required.
• Quizzes and tests are not an optional part of the class. Students will be quizzed periodically on the material covered in the assigned homework.
• In order for this class to have full credit value, students should plan to take Grammar I for the full year. it is highly recommended that parents provide additional related learning experiences outside of this class.
Enrichment Suggestions:
• Daily practice of the concepts learned in class
• Use your skills to help younger siblings or other students edit their written work.
• Additional personal writing (journaling, letters, etc.)
There are constant mistakes in print. Get in the habit of editing items you read.
ARCHES tutorial based classes are designed to supplement course work being done in home schools, thereby following the teaching of the Roman Catholic Church in proclaiming parents as the primary educators of their children.
Recommended for students in 7th or 8th grade.
