| Summary: | The Craft of Grammar is designed to be used flexibly in work- shop settings. This DVD was filmed over two days in Jeff Anderson�s sixth-grade classroom in San Antonio, Texas. Jeff works in a Title I middle school with a 94 percent Hispanic population. Nearly 100 percent of the students are eligible for free or reduced lunch. This guide gives workshop leaders suggestions for the use of video segments, without locking you into one progression or plan for using the materials. Each school community is different, and we know you will need to adapt the video viewing to a host of time constraints and a wide range of workshop formats. You might start any workshop by having participants view the introductory eight-minute sequence on the DVD, which gives important background information on the classroom and Jeff�s philosophy for teaching writing and grammar.
