English in grade four has, to a large extent, moved out of the phonics phase and more deeply into the writing phase of language. This brings with it the many rules included in the mechanics of a language, often called grammar. When we speak of grammar, we speak of rules for capitalization, punctuation, proper sentences, parts of speech, and correct use of words and terms. The study of all of these things helps us to better understand what we read and hear, but is especially necessary to be able to express ourselves clearly. Our goal in English, then, is to better understand and communicate with one another, both in spoken and written language, in the business world as well as in our social life.

Grammar and Writing Skills

Climbing To Good English

By: SchoolAid
CLIMBING TO GOOD ENGLISH 4 is designed for three Lessons per week, with each unit having nine Lessons including Unit Reviews and Tests. The practice sheets enable the student to have English daily or to have review on specific topics.

If your child has not had a strong foundation in grammar and writing instruction, we recommend doing Level 3 of Climbing to Good English first even if they can handle Level 4 of Pathway.
