A must-have book that I like to read every year before the new Church year and school year covering everything from family life, building an atmosphere & life of faith, praying as a family, celebrating the feasts, fasting, the Sacraments as a family and much more. Inspirational, practical, & very hands-on for parents with children of all ages! I also recommend Walking in Wonder for parents of children under eight years old.

Description: Introducing Grammar Through Art and Story
By Fr. Dn. James Hughes, St. Michael's School, Santa Rosa, CA
Have you ever drawn a conjunction? Do you have fond memories of learning the difference between a noun and a preposition? This book introduces the thirteen members of the Sentence family (four adults and nine children), who are, of course, the four types of sentences and the nine basic parts of speech.
The Sentence Family grammar curriculum was inspired by a fourth grade class many years ago and has proved to be an enjoyable and successful way to teach and learn the parts of speech. The personalities and pictures of the Sentence children symbolically show the nature, function and relationships of the parts of speech.
The Sentence Family, Introducing Grammar through Art and Story includes descriptions of each of the parts of speech - not in abstract terms, but in personalities of children. The interactions of the children, and their pictures,reflect the relationships of the parts of speech. The book is 8 ½ by 11 with 44 pages of text and thirteen full-color pictures of the characters. Also included are general instructions for drawing and instructions for basic diagraming.
