A Sentence a Day, Downloadable

Price: $10.95


Many teachers have adopted the daily proofreading exercises published by large companies as a way to help students practice finding and correcting errors. Sadly, many students have fallen asleep over these same exercises.

We believe that ordinary daily proofreading exercises try to do too much—i.e., force-feed facts and information as they also try to teach writing.

Downloadable A Sentence a Day takes a different approach. It focuses on short, playful, interesting sentences with a sense of humor. Students receive proofreading practice in daily doses that don’t overwhelm. Each exercise should take only a few minutes of class time, allowing for frequent, consistent reinforcement and practice of serious writing skills. 

Downloadable A Sentence a Day has each exercise printed on one page and the possible correction with notes for the teacher printed on the next page. That way you can print out an exercise or project it on a screen, keeping the answers separate.

After you have added a downloadable product to your shopping cart and completed the checkout process, you will receive an email with a link that will allow you to download the product.

A Sentence a Day is long overdue and should quickly find its way into the curriculum of anyone who earns a paycheck teaching communication skills to children. The exercises are concise and succeed in being amusing without seeming childish; something of utmost importance when attempting to reach children. In addition, the Notes section of each exercise will prove invaluable to teachers and unsure parents, as well as students working through the exercises on their own. Rarely does one encounter a book that so succinctly states its purpose and then provides payoff.
