Class Details
Grammar is hard! There are so many rules and similarities among word usage. This class is here to expose to your child some of the most common grammar errors. The goal is for your child to come away from this class with solid tools in their belts to help them speak and write correctly.
Each class will have a time of teaching through textbook-style teaching pages. All of the teaching pages are thoroughly supported with definitions, explanations, tips, reminders, and examples. Mrs. Rebecca will guide your child through each of the rules and will welcome class participation through observations, added student examples, and questions. There will be at least one Kahoot game
during each class. Through this bit of friendly competition, your child will see what he/she has learned and retained from the class. This game will be played individually, against the other students.
The following is a list of topics covered in this 8-week course:
- The use of a, an
- accept or except
- ain’t
- alot or a lot
- good or well
- beside, besides
- it’s, its
- could of, could have
- don’t or doesn’t
- your, you’re
- kind of, sort of
- Like, as if, as though

Instructor
Rebecca FosterMrs. Rebecca loves the quote, “Teaching isn’t my job. It’s my passion.” She has had this passion from the beginning. Her teddy bears learned a lot, with her bedroom-sized chalkboard and old textbooks from her mom’s elementary classroom. It was no surprise to anyone when she sought and gained her Interdisciplinary Studies (K-8) degree from Middle Tennessee State University in 2001. That fall, she began her teaching career in a self-contained 6th grade classroom. Since then, she has taught all core subject areas in grades 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 in Rutherford County Schools. As a dedicated public school teacher, she spent countless hours planning lessons, creating materials, researching for best practices, collaborating with co-workers, and combing through student data. Her students consistently showed academic growth on state testing. She has spent the last 2 years teaching students from China online and in-person at a homeschool tutorial. She is excited to join the team of outstanding educators at Fusion Online Academy.
