Hi,
 
Our curriculum committee just presented us with a draft of the  language arts 
standards for our private school.  Here are my seventh grade  grammar 
standards:
 
1. Place modifiers properly and use the active  voice.
2. Identify and use infinitives and participles and make clear  references 
between pronouns and antecedents.
3.  Identify all parts of speech and types and structure of  sentences.
4. Demonstrate the mechanics of writing (e.g., quotation marks,  commas at 
the end of dependent clauses) and appropriate English usage (e.g.  pronoun 
reference).
 
Anyone have any comments on these?
 
Thanks,
Gretchen
