Instead of chanting grammar rules or completing countless convention worksheets, we invite young writers to explore conventions as special effects devices that activate meaning. Our students study authentic texts and come to recognize these “patterns of power”—the essential grammar conventions that readers and writers require to make meaning.\u003cbr\u003e The first part of the book introduces a vibrant approach to grammar instruction and sets up what you need to immerse yourself in the \u003ci\u003ePatterns of Power\u003c\/i\u003e process, inviting students to experiment and play with language.
