Grammar in its Place puts grammar teaching in the context of language and shows teachers what to teach according to sound research and current thinking. Application of this information is provided through genres and each unit begins with a focal point to link areas of language for teachingor further development. Grammar, punctuation, style, word choice, usage and visual literacy are presented in focussed lessons, while examples for teaching purposes are drawn from children's work, modern writing, texts used in everyday situations and existing printed material.Grammar in its Place is divided into two sections: Section One focusses on genres with linguistic features, generic or story features, and activities incorporating linguistic and story features; Section Two centres around grammatical knowledge and resources, including: skills and focus lessons withteacher information, presentation ideas, notes on style and usage, and resource lists.
