Grammar Boot Camp


Grammar Boot Camp is designed to be a fun and engaging method for students to learn and review basic grammar vocabulary and principles. This camp is not designed to be primarily a "worksheets and assignments" academic camp, however, there will be some worksheets presented as one of many methods for students to internalize and apply their growing knowledge of grammar.
