Grammar in Grade 7 strengthens students’ ability to use language accurately and effectively. Through inquiry learning, learners ask questions about sentence structure, test grammar rules in writing, and reflect on how correct usage changes meaning. Instead of only memorizing definitions, they practice applying grammar in essays, speeches, and creative writing. Activities such as editing exercises, peer review, and role-play make grammar interactive and practical. By linking grammar to communication, Grammar becomes a tool for clear expression, critical thinking, and confident writing.
