Introduction to Grammar Rules and Exercises

- Emphasize the role of grammar in making writing and speech coherent and comprehensible.
Real Life Examples
- Use examples from well-edited texts like books, newspapers, or academic journals to illustrate correct grammar usage.
- Contrast these with examples from informal sources, such as social media posts or casual conversations, to highlight common grammatical errors.
Interactive Activities
