Introducing Mrs. Brubaker's Writing Program


Have a Bad Copy?

We recently moved from a thermal bound format printed on 8.5" x 11" paper to a stapled format printed on 11" x 17" paper. This necessitated a re-formatting of the entire book. We printed a number of bad copies as we worked out the kinks, and failed to get all of them out of the mix before we loaded up for the convention. If you got one, please contact us at info@applied-grammar.com or call us at 717 432 4890 and we will send you a replacement.

We apologize for the mistake.


A New Way to Teach Grammar

Discover a new way to teach grammar. Developed by a 15-year veteran teacher, Mrs. Brubaker's Writing Program teaches students through categorization and problem-solving, not memorization.

  1. Students learn language patterns through the use of color (color-blind sensitive).
  2. Students learn the uses of different word types.
  3. Students utilize high-order thinking skills.
  4. Assessment of progress is easy.
  5. Gets students excited about learning English!

Perfect for Home-Schoolers!

  1. Gives your child a solid foundation in English and Grammar.
  2. Is adaptable to any grade level.
  3. Can easily be used by the whole family.

Useful in Any Classroom

  1. Can be used on its own, or integrated into an existing required curriculum.
  2. Allows for immediate feedback.
  3. Is excellent for learning support, ESL, and gifted students.
  4. Promotes a high level of class involvement.
  5. Is skill level based. Grade levels are targets, and materials should be chosen according to the ability of the student.

Why Teach Grammar At All?

When a student understands grammar and the patterns in language, he or she is more able to comprehend any type of communication.

In addition, understanding grammar enables a student to write and speak more effectively.
