The second of four nonsequential Student Workbooks in the Grammar for the WellTrained Mind series, Grammar for the WellTrained Mind: Red Workbook provides detailed, welldesigned exercises in the correct use of English grammar, based on great works of literature as well as classic and contemporary works of science and history. Grammar for the WellTrained Mind: Red Workbook, along with the accompanying Key and the Core Instructor Text, make up a full year of Grammar for the WellTrained 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 analysisall 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 students mind. There are four nonsequential Workbooks. Students can pick up any of the Workbooks and follow along. Each Workbook contains the same rules and examplesbut four completely different sets of exercises and assignments, allowing students to develop a wideranging knowledge of how the rules and examples are put to use in writing. The Red 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 Comprehensive Handbook of Rules. This will become the students indispensable guide to writing through high school, into college and beyond. Stepbystep 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 wellwritten nonfiction texts in science, mathematics, and the social sciences. Regular review is built into each year of work. The first of four nonsequential workbooks, each containing new exercises that allow students to practice and apply the grammar principles under study.
