Introduction

The educational systems in the United States continually add standardized tests and laws in which to have every student on the same intellectual level. Although these laws and tests do give every student an opportunity in the academic world, they lead to teaching methods being flawed in certain subjects. One subject in which teaching methods have become controversial is grammar. The way that grammar is taught throughout America leads to the crippling of writing composition among students. To resolve this problem, teachers must integrate the ideas of grammar along with other aspects of the English language and writing.
