Re: Warthpath Correct Grammar Thread
Grammar is not something you "arrive at a consensus about" - especially with this bunch. It's either correct or it isn't. There are many fine K-6 level books that can help you. Most will be out of print because, as you obviously know, grammar is one of the many subjects no longer taught in our shameful excuse for a public school system.
