The Grammar Review Book

The Grammar Review Book provides English language learners with a practical, inductive approach to mastering the grammatical structures that cause the most persistent errors in writing and speaking. Each unit begins with a targeted mistake commonly made by learners--such as missing subjects, missing verbs, incorrect verb forms, or misused articles--and guides students to notice the pattern, analyze the issue, and discover the correct structure through carefully sequenced tasks. Instead of being told the rule first, students explore examples, compare sentences, and draw their own conclusions, strengthening long-term retention and deepening grammatical awareness.The book's approach is grounded in the belief that grammar learning is most effective when students are active investigators rather than passive recipients. To support this, the exercises are intentionally multi-sensory, involving reading, listening, noticing, sorting, speaking, writing, and analytical problem-solving. Each unit concludes with a short, original writing task that requires students to apply the target structure in a meaningful, communicative context--ensuring that new knowledge transfers directly into real-world use. This makes The Grammar Review Book an ideal resource for teachers who want grammar instruction that is both clear and cognitively engaging.Designed for classroom use, tutoring, or self-study, this book helps learners develop confidence, accuracy, and independence as they address the most common grammar challenges head-on.Key FeaturesInductive, discovery-based grammar instruction that promotes deeper understandingFocus on real, recurring grammatical errors made by English language learnersTasks that activate analytical and critical-thinking skillsMulti-sensory exercises involving noticing, comparing, speaking, reading, and writingA final writing task in every unit that requires students to apply the grammar point independentlySuitable for intermediate and advanced learners who want to improve accuracy in academic or professional contextsIdeal for ESL programs, writing support centers, and targeted grammar workshopsRecommended Pro Lingua Learning TitlesWriting in English: Step by Step - Elizabeth Weal - Helps students build the sentence and paragraph skills needed to apply improved grammar in structured writing.Writing Strategies 1 - David Kehe and Peggy Dustin Kehe - Provides guided practice with essay-writing fundamentals, complementing grammar review with academic writing development.Interactive Writing - Janet DeFilippo - Gives students structured practice in crafting coherent paragraphs, making it a natural next step after targeted grammar review.Discussion Strategies - David Kehe and Peggy Dustin Kehe - Supports learners in using grammar accurately while speaking in extended discussions.The Word Combination Card - Laurel Pollard and Marianna Taylor - Improves vocabulary and collocation accuracy, helping learners produce more natural and grammatically correct sentences.
