 Write a paragraph about taking up teaching and Assessment of Grammar.

The purpose for teaching grammar is not simply for you to be confident about correcting
mistakes in children’s work, nor is it to pass on tricks and techniques to be replicated in
a mechanistic way. This does not make children writers or lead to good writing.Teaching
grammar effectively is about enabling children to control grammar to express
increasingly complex ideas. When grammar is taught well, it can make a significant
different to children’s literacy development. Build up your own subject knowledge. To
teach grammar, you need explicit as well as implicit knowledge, to be confident about
using the correct terms and explaining these. Don’t just learn the next term you are
teaching. It is important to be able to relate new learning to other features and the text
as a whole. Give talk a high priority in your classroom. Children need to be able to
select from a wardrobe of voices that includes Standard English. Remember the
purpose of teaching grammar. Grammar is not simply the naming of parts of speech or
for teaching the rules of English. It needs to be strongly embedded in classroom talk,
reading and writing. Teach grammar in context. By introducing children to grammatical
features and language in context, you will be helping them to internalize these
principles. Try not to go for the ready-made solution by using a worksheet from a book.
It will make very little difference to children’s use of language and will be meaningless
for those learners who are not yet able to think in abstract ways. Read aloud and
discuss how authors use grammar. Children who read extensively and are read to will
have a ‘toolbox’ of structures, patterns and rhythms to draw on. Be systematic. Make
sure you know what the class you are working with have already learned and what they
need to learn now. Link new learning with their prior knowledge. Make learning
grammar fun. Teaching grammar can involve investigations, problem-solving and
language play as part of developing children’s awareness of and interest in how
language works.

 How do I improve my skills in Grammar and how do I assess my grammar?

75-100 words.
Grammar is a subject that stresses many students out, as it can be quite confusing and
complicated. However, correct grammar is important for your writing and success, both
as a student and as a future employee. It is thus crucial to know some simple methods
to improve your grammar skills. Reading may be the number one way you can improve
your grammar skills. When you read, you reinforce correct grammar in your mind. It can
be particularly helpful to read out loud, as the combination of seeing, saying, and
hearing assists in solidifying what you have learned. In addition to improving your
grammar, reading will help with all aspects of your writing, from sentence fluency to
increased vocabulary. It is useful to have a thorough reference book nearby that you
can consult when writing. This way, any time a grammatical question arises, you can
quickly refer to the manual to obtain the answer. There are many high-quality grammar
and writing guidebooks on the market. Speak to a librarian or writing instructor for
recommendations. Just as it helps to read a great deal, it will also benefit you to write
more. The more you practice writing with proper grammar, the more naturally it will
come to you. These are great’s tips to help you with writing a college essay. Students of
any age can benefit from taking extra strides to enhance their grammar. Use the above
methods regularly and you will greatly improve your grammar skills before you know it.
