Grammar is a method of describing how language works. A sound knowledge of English grammar helps a student to communicate more confidently both orally and in written text. As well, a good understanding of English grammar greatly assists in the study of foreign languages.

The teaching of grammar is sometimes seen as old-fashioned and for that reason has been avoided by many teachers. Teaching grammar lessons in isolation with material that has little relevance to the students' language experiences has added to this perception.

The SuperSpell "Grammar" programs have been designed as a fun and interactive way of teaching English grammar. Each activity has been designed to ensure student success and at the same time teaching or consolidating an aspect of English grammar. Within each activity there is sound and graphical reinforcement as well as a reward game to motivate each student.

Areas covered in each program include: nouns, pronouns, adjectives, adverbs, verbs, articles, conjunctions, prepositions, punctuation and sentence structure. Each activity has a spoken instruction and explanation.
