Each chapter progresses in a developmental sequence. Chapter objectives and benefits to help link the value of grammar to good writing are at the start of each chapter. Sentence exercises following explanatory material help readers apply newly learned concepts, and later exercises encourage them to use their own writing and to put grammar concepts in their own words. Chapters conclude with review exercises which provide sentence level work initially and then progress to paragraphs and essays for editing and revision. For anyone interested in basic writing and grammar.
