Feel intimidated by English grammar? Here are some suggestion for teaching English Skills painlessly.
I've heard many homeschooling parents say that they don't know how they're going to teach English grammar or writing to their kids because they've never been very good at it themselves.
But my question is this — if we expect our kids to learn things when they don't know much about a subject, why can't we as parents do the same thing? Who says learning has to stop when we graduate from high school or college.
So if you are one of those who feels your English grammar and/or writing skills aren't up to snuff, I offer an easy solution. Daily Writing Tips is a blog I found recently that offers informative tips about the English language as it applies to writing — one small bite at a time. Consider subscribing to Daily Writing Tips by email and take 60 seconds out of each day to read the daily posts.
It just might help you feel more confident about homeschooling your children and teaching English skills painlessly as you learn along with them.
