Overview
As students develop as readers, writers, listeners, and speakers, grammar and conventions play an important role in enabling students to communicate their thoughts and ideas clearly and accurately. A core tenet of the Fundamentals of Grammar and Conventions is that the teaching of grammar and conventions is most successful when embedded within authentic reading and writing experiences, and not taught in isolation.
