Re: grammar tricks



One more thought about the grammar "tricks" or "tips" -- Linda Hecker 
at Landmark College and Karen Klein of Brandeis do whole body 
punctuation -- choreographing the writing.  This is aimed at 
kinesthetic learners, particularly those students who may have a 
disability in processing language visually or aurally -- walking the 
sentences, stopping at the "periods", slowing down at commas, turning 
slightly with a conjunction, etc.  It's wonderful stuff -- they have 
an article called "The Write Moves" in Presence of Mind, ed. by Alice 
Brand and Dick Graves, published by Boynton/Cook.
