This thematic thesaurus contains a treasure trove of fascinating words to spice up your student's—and your own—writing! From character qualities to behavior traits to the five senses, you'll find a host of descriptive words to add interest and flair to any composition. I love using this with Unit 3 and Unit 5 papers.
Providing grammar terminology and tips for the IEW dress-ups and sentence openers, punctuation rules with a focus on commas, basic parts of speech rules, and advanced grammar concepts, this tri-fold resource organizes everything you need to know about grammar in an "at your fingertips" format. Keeping grammar concepts straight has never been so easy! This is a useful cheat sheet for concepts learned in Fix It! Grammar.
Designed to present information "at the point of need," this packet and binder together allow a new or experienced IEW student to build a resource used again and again. Includes charts, reminders, style samples, tips, exercises, word lists, and much more. All of the posters, guided key word outlines, word lists, and other useful resources are inside the wonderful product. Additionally, there are student example papers that students can reference for each unit. I have use this as a resource every year for students at all levels.
