Book Description
The Language Theater is an appealing, imaginative textbook that simplifies the grammar learning process using a unique approach, creating thoughtful thinkers and writers. The Language Theater is geared towards children in middle school but is practical for all ages. Visually centered, it is perfect for those studying English as a Second Language (ESL), home-schoolers and students with disabilities. Additionally, it provides an excellent visual reference/story-time tool for parents. The inspiration is a quote from 18th Century Philosopher Denis "Language is a theater. The words are the actors." In this exciting Language "Play", Master of Ceremonies, Theo the Grammarian, introduces each of the "Parts-of-Speech-Actors" who one-by-one take the stage to perform their grammatical roles & show & tell us how they all interact using whimsical graphics and focused minimal text. Ending chapter exercises reinforce each actor's role and often include a drawing activity. (A PLAY BOOK (workbook) is also available.
