There are different types of homeschool grammar
explained below, Analytical, Applied, and Electronic.
Analytical Grammar looks at grammar from a systematic approach. Over
a three year period, for the middle to junior high levels, grammar is
studied for 10 to 12 weeks intensively, which are broken into stages and
then only reviewed the rest of the year. Analytical Grammar is learned
by connecting the concepts of grammar in whole, rather than teaching
them separately.

Applied Grammar analyzes the components of sentence structure and its
composition, focusing on formal writing, punctuation and usage. The
goal of applied learning is to teach students how to properly use word
tools, which are taught through writing sentences and are duplicated in
the correct pattern. Lessons begin at the Elementary level and
continue through into the Intermediate level, practicing writing
sentences following the learned pattern. The outcome of applied learning
enables a student to write and speak more effectively.
Electronic Grammar allows homeschool grammar students to improve their proofreading, editing and writing
skills. These skills are necessary for students to write clear
sentences for email messages, memorandums, letters and reports.
Electronic Grammar lessons are taught to Intermediate, High School and
homeschool grammar students.
