ABOUT HIS BOOK... SEVEN BUILDING ACTIVITIES TO DEVELOP ADVANCED
WRITERS
"I can honestly say that everything I know and
love about language began in Mr. Morris’s class, and sometimes I
wish I could go back... for Mr. Morris’s reminder that language
is power, language is expression, and, most importantly,
language is fun.”
Emma Lennon, Middlebury College (former student)
"Mr. Morris
is an incredible teacher. In our class, we had a list of Strunk
and White’s rules posted over our chalkboard, modified such that
we could comprehend the guidelines. We followed the rules
religiously, using them to write expansive sentences nightly, as
shown in his book. Since his class, I have never had any
instructor teach me such valuable information about writing and
grammar. The grammar that Mr. Morris’s sentence activities
include is applicable at any writing level, whether in a single
complex sentence or in a twenty page research paper.”
Molly Drane, Middlebury College (former student)
“Students
love to use Jerry’s sentence building templates. They are able
to easily progress from writing simple sentences to complex
ones. The program is simple to use, even for the most frustrated
writers! I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw the complexity of
my students’ sentences.”
