It seems to me they are purposely making things more difficult. I mean, I did well in grammar. Writing is not difficult for me but he had grammar problems that I have never in my life heard or seen before. <BR/><BR/>Once I delved into it I discovered that a lot of it is just different names for things like pronouns, adverbs, etc... <BR/><BR/>My conclusion is they just want parents to believe that the schools know-it-all. Grammar is grammar and changing the name does not make a verb less active.Ms. Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00296728970210715746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5041284.post-1159281026164879682006-09-26T09:30:00.000-05:002006-09-26T09:30:00.000-05:00No clue.
