Shortlisted for Educational Book of the Year at the Education Resources Awards 2021. Everything you need to teach grammar in the primary classroom. What is the subjunctive mood?

Written by two experienced teachers, The Grammar Book provides everything you need to teach grammar at primary level. Covering what you need to know as well as practical ideas to enliven your teaching, this book will make grammar fun and engaging – for both the pupils and for you too! Written in Zoë and Timothy Paramour's funny, frank and reassuring style, this definitive guide is all about the importance of teaching grammar as a tool for writing, not as an 'extra' and certainly not as a boring lesson.

All teaching resources can also be downloaded from the companion website.
