"Grammar is for expression. Grammar is meant to create meaning on the page. Grammar is not a static set of rules." πŸŽ™οΈ

Corwin author Patty McGee recently joined Lindsay Beth Lyons on the Time for Teachership podcast to discuss Not Your Granny's Grammar. Patty shares why traditional grammar instruction often falls short, and how reframing grammar as a tool for expression, much like a painter's brush, can empower student voice.

In the episode, Patty explores practical strategies including sentence construction and combining, building long-term student partnerships, and creating space for curiosity through reflection.

βœ“ Engagement Attractors and Repellers to notice what draws students in or pushes them away
