History and Methods: The Grammar Approach

As a 1st grade reading/Language arts teacher, I found the history and methods of the grammatical approach to be very interesting. It was interesting to see the changes that were made over time. There were no connections to experiences or prior knowledge. It appeared to be grammar drills- which wasn't effective for CLD students. I found a link below that went into more detail regarding the 3 different approaches mentioned.
