I’m teaching Composition this year and decided to buy English textbooks. I bought used copies of an older, eighth grade textbook. The content is good, about half basic grammar and half the writing process. The class is small, which is great; all of the students need to work on basics. Two of the first writing assignments are a personal narrative and a friendly letter. The format dove-tails well with my plans. I want the kids to write to active duty military members and describe their birthday celebrations. Below is a sample from the table of contents. It isn’t the entire course; however it is a good start!
