Image Grammar, Second Edition: Teaching Grammar as Part of the Writing Process

<p>"With <em>Image Grammar</em>, visual images are everything," says author <strong>Harry Noden</strong>. "This is why both teachers with struggling students and those with AP students have embraced the book through 15 printings."<br /> <br /> Each chapter is divided into two sections: concepts that show how professional writers develop their art and lesson strategies to implement these concepts in the classroom. New and expanded concepts in the second edition include: </p> <ul style="margin-top: 0in; list-style-type: disc;"> <li>an introduction to <strong>grammatical chunks</strong></li> <li>expanded discussion of the <strong>five basic brush strokes</strong> and examination of advanced brush strokes</li> <li>presentation on the <strong>nonfiction model</strong></li> <li>explanation of the <strong>character wheel</strong>-a visual aid that helps students to write both a nonfiction and fiction character sketch.</li> </ul> <p>Plus, the updated and expanded CD includes customizable files of the 60+ strategies; reproducible handouts; images and quotes for projection in the classroom; and dozens of weblinks.</p>
