Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
Write It Right is a 179-page grammar and editing workbook for students in Grades 4 and 5. Every passage, exercise, and explanation in this book was designed from the ground up using real teaching practice — not recycled worksheets. Instead of drilling isolated grammar rules, Write It Right puts students to work as editors. They read real-world texts — text messages, diary entries, restaurant reviews, travel blogs, newspaper articles, and short stories — and edit them for grammar, punctuation, sentence structure, and clarity. Every exercise uses original, modeern-day content written specifically for this book. What's inside: Chapter 1: Grammar Detective — verb tense, pronouns, subject-verb agreement, capitalization, and spelling in real messages and posts Chapter 2: Sentence Sleuth — fixing fragments, run-ons, choppy sentences, and flat descriptions Chapter 3: Punctuation Patrol — commas, apostrophes, quotation marks, and exclamation points in context Chapter 4: Clarity & Flow — logical order, transitions, awkward phrasing, and paragraph organization Chapter 5: Real-World Application — full editing passes on newspaper articles, persuasive letters, travel blogs, and a full magazine feature Chapter 6: Writing Clear Instructions for People, Devices, and Everything In Between — a skill no other workbook at this level teaches: how to write precise, complete instructions for any reader, including the search engines, voice assistants, and programs students use every single day Every chapter includes 9 exercises with escalating difficulty, a Chapter Challenge, an answer key with full explanations, and practical tips for parents on how to support without taking over. Chapter 6 alone is worth the price of the book. Writing clear instructions is one of the most practical skills a child can develop — and almost no school curriculum teaches it directly. Your child will learn to write for friends, family, devices, and programs with the same core principle: say exactly what you mean, leave nothing to guesswork. This book is ideal for: Students in Grades 4–5 who need engaging, real-world grammar practice Home educators looking for a complete, teacher-quality language arts workbook Parents who want their child to write more clearly and confidently Students preparing for middle school writing demands
