Book Description
Grammar by Diagram is a book designed for anyone who wishes to improve grammatical understanding and skill. Using traditional sentence diagraming as a visual tool, the book explains how to expand ten basic patterns for simple sentences into compound, complex, and compound-complex sentences, and how to employ verbals (infinitives, gerunds, and participles), other specialized structures, and even punctuation for additional versatility. The third edition includes more exercises at the foundational level and more focus on how to arrange and combine sentences for maximum effect. It also includes a new initial CHAPTER on “preliminaries” to define a few basic but overarching concepts, a separate CHAPTER on pronouns, and a CHAPTER devoted to the connection between understanding grammar and writing effective sentences.

Book Description
Grammar by Diagram, second edition is a book designed for anyone who wishes to improve grammatical understanding and skill. Using traditional sentence diagraming as a visual tool, the book explains how to expand simple sentences into compound, complex, and compound-complex sentences, and how to employ verbals (infinitives, gerunds, and participles) and other structures for additional variety. The text addresses the most frequent usage errors by explaining how to distinguish between adjectives and adverbs; how to avoid problems of pronoun case, agreement, and consistency; how to ensure that verbs will agree with their subjects and will be appropriate in terms of tense, aspect, voice, and mood; and how to phrase sentences to avoid errors in parallelism or placement of modifiers. Six appendices incorporate further exercises, a summary of key basics from the text, and supplemental material not included in the body of the text but useful for quick reference. This new edition includes additional exercises and has been revised and updated throughout.

Book Description
"...a masterful presentation of grammar--a well-structured, incremental course in diagramming with clear explanations and memorable illustrations of each new principle... Phyllis Davenport understands that if you want to make yourself understood, you need grammar. Her textbook abounds with examples of the ambiguities that result from an ignorance of grammatical rules...The art of diagramming sentences provides students with an indispensable foundation for the study of grammar, and Rex Barks makes the process of learning this skill manageable and fun. The book is laid out in logical, incremental steps, and students are given the opportunity to master one concept before proceeding to the next...It contains many clever devices to help students with tricky concepts (e.g., prepositions are to be remembered as "anything a squirrel can do to a tree.") And it is pervaded by her sense of humor and enthusiasm for her subject. - Lisa VanDamme - Director, VanDamme Academy

Knowing grammar will help you write and speak with confidence, and sentence diagramming is an amazing tool for mastering grammar. This book includes definitions, examples, and sentence diagrams of the eight parts of speech, phrases, clauses, gerunds, infinitives, participles, and much more. I created this resource for 5th graders through adults, but I've heard from many teachers and parents using it successfully with students in 3rd and 4th grade as well. Do yourself and your students a favor. Learn or teach grammar with sentence diagrams, and use this book to make it easy! I have a class of fifth graders, and they just can't get enough of sentence diagramming! -Jennifer, Teacher I am amazed at all of your great resources. I'm now developing my sentence diagramming skills and learning how to use proper grammar. Your information is a big help for me as I teach my two lovely daughters at home. You've given me grammar knowledge and confidence in myself! - Lynn, Homeschool Teacher I highly recommend this program. We bought the book, and my eight-year-old son has caught on very quickly. He actually enjoys grammar work now. - Sasha, Homeschool Teacher
