BJU Press The Writers Toolbox

A Writing and Grammar Handbook The Writer's Toolbox covers all eight parts of speech and the seven sentence patterns in detail. It explains grammar, usage, and mechanics rules and provides an overview of the writing process and strategies for effective writing. The text discusses research skills such as using the dictionary, using the library, and documenting sources in a research paper. Included are up-to-date examples of MLA documentation style and a sample research paper. Spiral bound, softcover.  Lindley's personal note: Although BJU states that this is for use with 9th grade only, we have found this very helpful in their 7th grade program. After using it, I personally believe it can be used with any junior or high school language arts program. It is VERY helpful!
