Description:
Brain studies show that working with patterns builds comprehension and memory.
Teaching underlying patterns and relationships organizes fragmented information into
meaningful, memorable parts and wholes. Though often omitted, taught as isolated
skills and relegated to writing instruction, grammar and syntax are foundational for
building vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension during reading instruction. This
presentation shares ways to teach grammar and syntax that are meaningful, orderly,
and engaging. It introduces hands-on manipulatives and use of colors and coding and
weaves grammar and syntax into language instruction as an integrated whole.
How we learn instructs (builds within) our avenues of thought. Language instruction
shapes our minds, ideas and culture. Its effects are far-reaching. Whether you are a
teacher, student, parent or student of life, you may find Living Language methods not
only engaging and effective, but transformative for how we think, orient ourselves and
relate.
