What is a good tactic in teaching grammar to Jr. Highers?

Giving them vocabulary, and making them write a complete sentence with every word. I must say, the whole teaching parts of the sentences gets lost on kids, it's pointless. Just make them write sentences, while it may be onerous, it's better. Also, you could write an incorrect sentence and have them rewrite it.

I teach Spanish and we focus on prepositions in the target language. We do it in small sections and generally do it as opposites; on/off, above/below, between, infront of/behind, etc.\n\nOne activity that I have done is assigned the prepositions to small groups of 3 kids; a pair of words for each group. The groups then prepare a little skit where they repeat the words and demonstrate them. Of course our goal is to learn them in Spanish, but many times the kids do not know the difference in English.\n\nFor the skits they can use what they want. Sometimes they use themselves and repeat the prepositions as they move and show what they are. They make signs. They also use props like Hot Wheels cars, dolls, Monopoly houses, etc. Sometimes (if I can get a recorder) we videotape it. It helps the kids to retain them. Oops; just read the question again; with just 2 kids you can have them create their own skits for many different prepositions. The skits only last a couple of minutes each. It will help them to remember what are prepositions.\n\nI also made a powerpoint presentation with a dog and some houses. Each slide shows the dog in front of, behind, between the houses, etc. It helps.\n\nAs for games, it depends on if you are trying to show them where to place the prepositions in the sentence or how to recognize them. For teaching placement you can give the kids several sentences with one word written on card stock. The cards are scrambled. Have them place them in the correct order so that the sentence makes sense. They can use the chalk tray or magnets. \n\nCreate a board game (you can google one to print out). Type up sentences. The kids roll the die. Then they draw a card. If they can recognize the preposition then they can move the number of spaces. If they are wrong then they either do not move, or they move back the number of spaces.\n\nIt will take a little bit to make up the activities, but then you can keep them and you will have it year after year.

The Saxon math books were the best that I ever used. Doing 1/2 of a book ended up being the equivalent of 2 years in public schools. They are excellent in reinforcing what has already been learned so you don't forget it a day later!\n\nThe only way I was able to learn grammar was to teach it. If you have the older kids help the younger ones, they will end up learning and remembering far more since they have to apply their knowledge.\n\nReading the right books can teach them more than any multiple choice quiz they have to study for.\n\nDo not let them get away with skipping parts of exercises that they do not want to do and you do not want to grade anyway!\n\nGive the youngest ones learning activities at the same time so they feel like they are part of it and get into the habit of school time for when it is their turn. They will absorb more than you know of what they hear you teaching the older ones. My youngest brother can already read 2nd grade material and he is in kindergarten. But this is because he was allowed to actively participate in the learning activities.\n\nDo not try to teach them when they are hungry or tired!!!\n\nPerhaps most of all, do not underestimate your children. When they are being difficult or having a hard time grasping a concept, there is usually an underlying cause that has nothing to do with the subject matter.

This is a general question and hard to answer without knowing more. If you were a school aged person you could discuss your concern with your english teacher. you can also look at the links below and see if they are helpful. practice, practice, and more practice will help improve your grammar skills. however, some learning disabilities can impact correct grammar usage so perhaps that may need to be looked into especially if you feel you have other areas of needs such as reading or spelling. good luck.\n\nhttp://www.englishgrammarconnection.com/\n\nhttp://www.englishforums.com/English/ImproveGrammarSkills/zndx/Post.htm

Read as much as possible.  Also, University of Arkansas Press has a book "Writing Good Sentences" that is the best organized English Grammar workbook ever written.  Go to the college website to find it.  The author is a Dr. Faulkner, a professor there who invented the system while he was in the navy and the guys on the ship wanted him to teach them to write when they had spare time.

Hem hem.."how good your teacher be" is not proper grammar, and frankly I have no idea what you said.\n\nSo, I guess the question is how do you describe how good your teacher is, or how good you teacher can teach. You can say that you learned a lot, and that you've improved.

Let her use the language in a communicative way since the start, this encourages them to continue with their learning process because they feel they are actually learning something and they will be proud of sharing what they learned with their family later.  Depending on her decision as to why learn English and her actual level devise a short conversation, pick out some words you can introduce as vocabulary before you teach it to her; have her repeat the conversation after you a couple of times and then take turns being one of the persons in the conversation.  When she gets confident enough have her substitute some of the information with her own examples or add to this conversation by providing more details.  You can pick out a grammatical point from the same conversation, for example "pronouns" and do some more exercises based on that.
