Customer Reviews: Avg. Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Great teaching Aid:
Repetition of activities: Overall there were some good ideas in this book, but many of the activities are repeated - just modified to suit the topic such as Tic-Tac-Toe, Acrostic poems, Don't Say It and one where you read out a story and the students put their hands up when they hear for example a prepositional phrase. Great fun for questionable people!: I'm a teacher myself. I've taught all sorts of kids all sorts of things! Well, this Sunley character is quite a case. Looking through the book, some of the activities are great fun, but some are a notch or two away from questionable.

Grammar Lessons: Great addition to the classroom. Adds some fun and creativity to teaching grammar in the elementary classroom. Easy to prepare for activities.
