Unleashing Your Language Wizards: A Brain-Based Approach to Effective Editing and Writing
"I like the way the author begins the chapters with a true/false quiz, the answers to which follow in the body of the chapter–it’s a nice way to focus the reading, as well as to remind [readers] constantly of the myths surrounding grammar and writing." -Jennifer Powers, assistant professor of education, Green Mountain College "[The book] positively shines, as it helps to frame issues that are so important to address in the grammar/writing classroom but that are difficult to explain without clear pathways laid out...the more ways to get students physically engaged and mentally engaged in grammar learning, the better–the activities here seem designed well to engage students and provide them with good practice in the concepts...the author lays [everything] out in a methodical way that gets to the heart of [learning grammar]." --Jennifer Powers, Green Mountain College  "The content and process to teaching grammar explicitly from a brain-based approach is without exception, timely, in light of the recent recognition of the type of students who make up the achievement gap in the Untied States...This is excellent information to consider pedagogically. [The book] will generate much discussion on how teachers can make...[grammar] strategies more interesting and engaging...for English learners." - Catherine Elise Barrett, University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill
