Grammar for the Well-Trained Mind Purple Key, Revised Edition

Clear, thoroughly-explained answers to all of the exercises in the Revised Purple Workbook. Together, the Revised Key and the Revised Purple Workbook provide detailed, well-designed exercises in the correct use of English grammar. Examples are based on great works of literature, as well as classic and contemporary works of science and history.

The Grammar for the Well-Trained Mind series provides all the grammar skills needed to write and speak with eloquence and confidence. Step-by-step instruction takes students from the most basic concepts through advanced grammatical concepts. Extensive diagramming exercises reinforce the rules and help technical and visual learners to understand and use the English language effectively. Each step of the diagramming process is illustrated and thoroughly explained to the student. Clear explanations are provided for any answers that are difficult or ambiguous. Regular review is built into each year of work.

The Key to the Revised Purple Workbook accompanies the Revised Purple Workbook, one of four non-sequential workbooks, each containing new exercises that allow students to practice and apply the grammar principles under study. Along with the accompanying Revised Purple Workbook and the Core Instructor Text, the Key completes a full course of grammar study. To complete the program, add The Grammar Guidebook: an indispensable guide to clear, grammatical writing that will last into college—and beyond; as well as The Diagramming Dictionary, which gathers every step of the diagramming process for easy reference, along with illustrations.
