The 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th grade do a grammar program called “Shurley English”. This is a program that incorporates jingles along with each topic in grammar as a fun memory aid. For the past three years, we have only been doing the grammar portion of the program, but this year we will be doing the complete Shurley English program. This will encorporate writing, vocabulary, grammar, and many other different English concepts into one curriculum. I am shocked to see how much the
students have really enjoyed singing the jingles and how much improvement I have seen in their grammar skills in the last few years, and I am anxious to see that growth continue as we now incorporate the whole program. If you see a student, ask them to sing you a jingle or two!
