56. Principles of teaching 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.
Here are 7 key principles to bear in mind when teaching grammar:
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.
