These lessons are inspired by an idea which the 'Exchange' people at the University of Illinois published on their web page. Their idea was a game called 'Grammar Safari' in which students would hunt for grammar structures in authentic texts. One possibility, they wrote, was to create a lesson in which students would 'hunt' for adjective clauses in a novel one could find on the web, such as LOUISA MAE ALCOTT'S, LITTLE WOMEN.
