Short, comical stories teach concepts in a memorable way. Students discover the havoc that ensues when the evil Gremlin tampers with the English language. Classic books are relegated to a long-term care facility and can’t be checked out. Idioms like “knock her socks off” begin to literally happen. Helping verbs on planet Sentence can’t be used when they agree with a motivational speaker that it’s time to focus on their own dreams.
The royal English children invite students to become fellow grammar guardians in order to save the galaxy from crises like these. Teachers read one of the mysteries to their students or advanced readers read the text themselves. Vocabulary words are defined in the text. Discussion questions follow each lesson to check for understanding. Students then complete a corresponding mission in the mission manual that reinforces the concepts. Teachers provide as much help as necessary.
