Easy Grammar Ultimate Grade 8 Teacher's Guide

The Easy Grammar Ultimate series is explicitly designed to introduce and teach essential grammar concepts to older students, regardless of their previous grammar background. 


In just ten to fifteen minutes a day, your child will be functioning at his grade level and be competent to undertake any state or college prep tests. As a bonus, as your child practices his grammar skills, he will also be learning age-appropriate history, science, literature, geography, and so much more.


This series contains 180 daily teaching lessons. Each lesson covers capitalization, punctuation, sentence combining, grammar, and more.


The Easy Grammar Teacher's Manuals are reproducible for non-commercial student use. An answer key is included in the back.


You can order workbooks if you don't want to copy the pages out of the Teacher's Manual. However, we are strong proponents of independent study. So we would recommend that each child receives a Teacher's Manual instead of a student workbook. He can read the teaching instructions, do the worksheets, and correct his own work. This option does not work if you have a couple of children who need the same level book. In that case, photocopying the worksheets from the Teacher's Manual or using the workbooks (which may not be photocopied) may be more cost-effective.


About Easy Grammar


Most children dread grammar study because it is too complex. But Easy Grammar is just that, easy.


What sets Easy Grammar apart is the memorization of prepositions. This is the first step because once the student can identify and eliminate the prepositional phrases in a sentence, then determining the subject, verb, and other parts of speech is much easier. 


If you lack an adequate grammar background and find even the preceding sentence intimidating, relax. The hardest part will be memorizing the prepositions. After that, everything falls into place.


Easy Grammar employs a virtually "hands-on" approach by deleting and marking certain words or phrases. The vocabulary has been kept simple, and, in most cases, the sentences are relatively short. 



Though it is not required, most customers complete Easy Grammar Plus before they begin the Easy Grammar Ultimate series.

My dyslexic son's weakest area. Every day he does one page, we go over it and he fixes all his mistakes. Every day he gets a tiny bit better. I am hopeful by the end of the year that progress will be significant

Easy Grammar Ultimate Grade 8 Teacher's Guide

We have had a love/hate relationship with Easy Grammar through the years as at times it has felt tedious (in years past); this year I feel like he has it down! This is big for him. I see the improvement and the culmination of knowledge in him.

Can't Beat Easy Grammar

My students do very well with Easy Grammar. The 8th grade year was no exception. Lessons are small and not overwhelming , while still touching on a few different concepts again and again. I suggest getting the test book that goes with this. I The one thing I did not like about this teacher's guide, unlike the prior year's guides, is the answers are in the back of the book in an answer key. In other years we have used there was student page for photocopying and another page the mirrored it, which was the answer key. I found it annoying to have to flip to the back of the book so frequently. You could purchase this as the workbook and just tear out the answer key, if you wanted to save money and had no plans to reuse the answer key/workbook.
