8th Grade English questions parents ask
Are gerunds ever wrong?
They are correct but easy to overuse; vary with infinitives so sentences do not all start with -ing.
Why does formal style matter in 8th grade?
School writing is read by teachers who expect consistent register, the same expectation that carries into high school and tests.
