Very often the same mistakes are made over and over again, so this assignment is an exercise in targeting those repeated errors in an effort to be more aware of them and ensure that you are less likely to commit them in the future. It is also an exercise in building up and diversifying your written grammar.

    In John Updike’s “A & P” Sammy, the main character of the story encounters three young girls who come into his grocery store. They are dressed for a day at the beach, not shopping. “The one that caught my eye first was the one in the plaid green two-piece. She was a chunky kid, with a good tan and a sweet broad soft-looking can with those two crescents of white just under it, where the sun never seems to hit, at the top of the backs of her legs.” (Updike) Sammy goes on to say the girls are barefoot and in describing another of the girls says the straps on her swimsuit are down. Their apparel gives them some unintended attention. Lengel, the A & P manager, confronts the three girls, reminding them they are not at the beach. The girls try to defend themselves stating the reason they are in the store is to pick up one item for one of the girls’ mothers. Lengel does not care and tells the girls it does not matter why they are in the store but they need to be decent when they came in to do any sort of shopping. Sammy does not like the way Lengel made a scene and embarrassed the girls. He feels he must follow his heart and stand up for the three girls by quitting his job. In my life, exploring the option of homeschooling my three children, I feel there could be unintended negative consequences as well. Weighing the pros and cons of the decision is a heavy task, but in the end I must do what is right for my family despite outside obstacles, just as Sammy had to do what he felt was right. Sadly, doing what is right for you often times is rejected by main stream society and can therefore bring uphill challenges that accompany your decision.…

    The teaching of grammar as a system should be restricted to elective classes and units with an emphasis on inquiry and discovery, 2. Reading should be used to aid students in their acquisition and practice of grammatical constructions and structures, 3. Grammar instruction should highlight examples and de-emphasize terminology, 4. Production of effective sentences should supersede analysis, 5. Effective punctuation as reflected in professional writing should be taught rather than the “correct” punctuation as prescribed in handbooks, 6. Questions of usage should…

    Subsequent lessons should contain affixes raising her awareness through examples. An examination of Elizabeth's writing for parts of speech provides more insight into potential areas for improvement. Her sentences adequately express her thought following an S-V-O format and included a few propositional phases “I have apples in my house” despite this, her writing lacks interest. She would benefit from lessons on adjectives, adverbs, and conjunctions making paragraphs more fluid and enjoyable to read. Though Elizabeth is rarely able to articulate correct grammatical terminology, she is acquiring a solid foundation of the English language for future learning. Apparent in her ability to compare and contrast English language and grammar rules to her native Spanish language. With just six months of ESL classes, including two months of conversational tutoring, I am impressed with her progress. It is a shame; her desire to learn is unmistakable. However, she only qualifies for nine months of free ESL classes, and she cannot afford to…
