About Grammar Masters

About Grammar Masters

Engaging and fun:
On your journey you will meet eight Grammar Masters characters, including the elusive Grand Master Tiger. Pupils can select their favourite Grammar Masters characters and search out the Grand Master Tiger. Through meeting the characters, the programme inspires and motivates pupils, teachers, teaching assistants and parents in the wider school community.

Time saving:
Grammar Masters is a package of digital SMART notebook slides for teaching grammar lessons. When you purchase Grammar Masters you will ensure complete coverage of all Grammar objectives in the National Curriculum from Years 1-6. The package includes teacher notes, with key teaching points and subject knowledge development. It reduces teacher workload when planning grammar sessions, it does the groundwork for them.

Value for money:
The prices shown are the total cost for your class or your school. For a school of 250 pupils it would be 40p per pupil.

Flexible:
Teachers can adapt sessions to their pupils’ needs and interests. The sessions can be taught as lesson starters, whole class lessons or booster sessions.

Meaningful:
Each area of grammar is thoroughly explored and pupils are given ample opportunities to analyse language and its function, using words in creative and meaningful contexts that link to whole class teaching. Having this clear link between grammar and being creative ultimately has a positive impact on the quality of pupils’ writing.
