Episode 345: Teaching Grammar in the Flow of Writing


Listen Later

Have you ever taught a grammar skill on Friday, only to watch your students completely forget it by Monday? You’re not alone. Grammar taught in isolation rarely sticks—but when it’s woven into the flow of writing instruction, everything changes.

In today’s episode, I’m sharing the EB Grammar Framework, a simple 3-pillar approach that makes grammar instruction clear, memorable, and connected to real student writing. You’ll learn how to:
 ✅ Use direct instruction to lay a strong foundation
 ✅ Reinforce skills with fun, low-prep grammar games
 ✅ Help students immediately apply grammar to their own writing

By the end of this episode, you’ll see how grammar can move from “boring and disconnected” to “meaningful and empowering”—for both you and your students.
