Summary: Middle School & High School Use
Comment: This summer school session I taught 7-8-9 combination classes. Ruth Heller's book on adverbs was helpful. The bright pictures were just as eye-catching for a 13-year old as for a 7-year old. The language use prompted many questions from my students -- second language learners and native English speakers. We even "marched" around the campus reciting the opening ditty "Adverbs work terrifically when answering specifically how, how often, when, and where." Though the freshmen were a bit embarrassed about the march, they learned about adverbs and thought the song and march were great punishment for the class clowns.

Summary: Score one for concept-attainment lessons!
Comment: I constantly struggle to clearly present the abstract concept of the parts of speech. Heller's Language Series is a wonderful help in this task. The illustrations are beautiful, the rhyming instructional/example-filled poetry is fun to read, and the book could be used with a wide variety of ages! Thank you Ruth Heller!

Summary: Wonderful resource for teachers
Comment: Ruth Heller has a fantastic way of explaining parts of speech to children that is fun and different. I am a teacher in a middle school and I am using all of her World of Language books to open up the lesson on each part of speech. They are a bit elementary for middle school students, but sometimes that is what it takes. The pictures are also a delight and the students enjoy browsing through the book when I am finished. What a fun way to open up kids to parts of speech and the English language.
