[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stop wishing and send your kid to Catholic school. [/quote] This. I have a public 8th grader. They can’t write well at all. It’s not taught. Go private if you want your kids to write well and be taught grammar and spelling. [/quote] Grammar and punctuation starts slowly in elementary school and then hits full speed in middle school. Your schools must be teaching the rules of grammar and punctuation. How else would they know whether to say “Jimmy and I” or “me and Jimmy” ? And the simple way you can confirm which is right. How about too, two, to and which ones to use. Identifying verbs, nouns, adjectives. I before E except after C with exceptions. Plus so much more. Punctuation starts early but grammar and punctuation focus goes on until graduation. [/quote]
