ABOUT GRAMMARDOG

"When I tried out the quizzes on students in the fall, the results were amazing. After taking tests on three titles, they GOT IT. The format was instructive. Students started to recognize alliteration, sensory imagery and metaphors as they read the books. The grammar quizzes improved their writing."

"I really appreciated the quality of all of your materials and used them extensively in my own classes."

"Thank you for all your work in making the beauty of our language accessible to students."

"So useful for teachers everywhere - a great grammatical tool for students!"

"Love Grammardog! It uses a great selection of widely taught literature pieces to integrate or bolster grammar instruction. Using keystone texts as examples really helps students connect to texts from an author’s craft perspective. I love using them as warm-up exercises, test reviews, or tickets-out-the-door."

"This was a great resource that saved me the time of hunting for literary/rhetorical devices throughout the book. It was a great companion to the study of these devices we had been working on in class."

"I used this as bell work for my students. It was great to use because we are reading Great Expectations so it made grammar fit better into our lessons!"

ABOUT MOVIE VERSION

"Good supplemental resource for Frankenstein!"

"I used this resource during Remote Learning after the completion of the novel, Frankenstein. Students were given the choice to watch any version of Frankenstein. Students found the assignment easy to understand and had no difficulty completing the essay. They were able to offer deep insight regarding comparison/contrast of a work in 2 formats."

"This was helpful while my students watched the movie. Thanks"

"Very helpful in keeping the student engaged and on task. Students were able to easily follow along with the guide and enjoy the movie without too much effort. I appreciate guides like this one as students tend to get off task during a movie."

"This was a big help! Thanks!"

"A valuable resource for the comparative essay that students complete."

"I used this resources to help prepare me to teach my Fahrenheit 451 unit. I had my students read the novel, examine the graphic novel and watch the 1966 movie. I wanted to make sure that I could help my students note the differences between the movie and the novel. Some differences are subtle and others are somewhat significant. This made for a great discussion about whether the changes in the movie affected the overall message of the novel. This resource was a great reference! I will be using it again this year!"

"My students loved getting to see the movie. I used to be so against showing full movies, but great resources like this one helped me feel much better about doing so: digital literacy is an important skill for today's students, and they loved the movie and activities we did based on this resource!"

"An absolutely invaluable resource. I was teaching compare/contrast writing using Of Mice and Men, so being able to reference this quickly saved me an enormous amount of time. Thank you for the quality!"

"Effective in promoting engagement."

"This was a great way to guide my students through the film."

"My students really enjoyed the movie version of Rikki Tikki Tavi and your viewing questions helped keep everyone on task. Thank you!"

"It was a thorough resource."

"Super easy to use during distance learning with help from the Kami Chrome extension."

"Can't begin to say how useful this resource is!! Thanks!"

"Great for helping students recognize the differences between text and film!"

"Loved using this resource as a comparison between the book and novel! Excellent - thank you!"

"My students used this resource as we read an adapted version of The Red Badge of Courage. It was a helpful tool for them."
