Diagramming


Six months into the school year, I have finally admitted to myself that our grammar textbook is lame. It is boring, which I don't have a problem with except that the point of boring in this textbook doesn't seem to be retention. So boring for the point of being boring is not okay. Therefore, I have decided to commit the rest of our school year to diagramming. Whoopee! I love to diagram and it brings me a perverse delight to pull out the whiteboard and call to the kids "Time for diagramming" and then hear their groans from the far corners of the house.
