Why we need to rethink how we teach grammar with Patty McGee
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Grammar. If the thought of it makes you anxious, you are not alone. My guest this episode, Patty McGee, wants to change that by changing how we teach the subject. The pedagogy that she prescribes in her excellent book, Not Your Granny’s Grammar, is not necessarily new (Patty bases her recommendations on evidence-informed practices). However, solid pedagogy, like Patty’s, is rarely applied to subject of grammar. Patty and I discuss this, her book, and tips for reducing grammar anxiety. More information about Patty and her book is at talkingaboutkids.com.
