IntroductionFor ease of use, this Teacher’s Book has been divided into two distinct parts. The first part gives a comprehensive introduction, which explains the teaching method in detail. It is a good idea to read this part of the Teacher’s Book before using the Grammar 2 Pupil and Teacher’s Books in the classroom. The second part of the Teacher’s Book provides a thorough and structured lesson plan for each day of teaching. The lesson plans in this part of the book are designed specifically for use with the corresponding pages in the Grammar 2 Pupil Book.
The Grammar 2 Pupil and Teacher’s Books are designed to follow on from the Grammar 1 Pupil and Teacher’s Books. They are intended to:
•introducenewelementsofgrammar, •teachnewspellingpatternssystematically, •developdictionaryandthesaurusskills, •improvevocabularyandcomprehension,and •reinforcetheteachingintheGrammar 1 Pupil and Teacher’s Books.
Like the activities in the Jolly Phonics and Grammar 1 Pupil Books, the teaching in the Grammar 2 Pupil Book is multisensory and active. In the Grammar 2 Pupil Book, particular emphasis is placed on consolidating the children’s learning and helping them to apply their new skills. The children are also introduced to new spelling patterns and parts of speech. As before in the Grammar 1 Pupil Book, each part of speech is introduced with an accompanying action and colour. The actions not only enliven the teaching, but also make the parts of speech easier for the children to remember. The colours, which are useful when identifying and labelling parts of speech in sentences, are the same as those used in Montessori Schools.
The Grammar 2 Teacher’s Book explains all the essential teaching ideas. The Pupil and Teacher’s Books can be used alone, or alongside the Grammar 2 Big Book, which provides valuable additional support.
Children’s Achievement
The most dramatic improvements to result from using the Grammar 2 Pupil and Teacher’s Books will be found in the children’s writing. After completing the Grammar 2 Pupil Book, the children will spell and punctuate more accurately, use a wider vocabulary, and have a clearer understanding of how language works. In their first year at school, Jolly Phonics Pupil Books teach the children to write independently, by listening for the sounds in words and choosing letters to represent the sounds. This skill enables the children to write pages of news and stories. It is a joy to read their work
