Eighth grade students practice language skills covering punctuation, verb tense, conjunctions, word meaning, and more in ten- to fifteen-minute daily lessons. 

How it works
Daily Language Review follows the research-based model of frequent, focused practice to help students learn and retain skills.
 
On days 1 through 4, half-page activities provide four language exercises:

• two sentence-editing exercises
• two items that practice a variety of language and vocabulary skills

 
On day 5, a full-page activity provides a more extensive practice of a vocabulary strategy or skill, and gives students the opportunity to practice using the words in their own sentences.

 
36 weeks of daily practice activities cover:

• Grammar and usage
• Capitalization, punctuation, and spelling
• Vocabulary word meaning and relationships
• Using acquired vocabulary

 
Features and benefits:

• Concise daily lessons are easy to scaffold and ideal for daily warm-up, quick informal assessments, and test prep
• The skills scope and sequence details the skills practiced each week
• A downloadable skill list and answer key provides an item-by-item list of the skills practiced each day to help teachers identify student competencies
• Each title includes downloadable homeschool connection activities to encourage parent involvement
• A progress chart and vocabulary log help students monitor their daily scores and keep track of new vocabulary
