Grammar Goals Guides
Read the grammar behind the lesson you're on
A Grammar Goals Guide lines the article library up against the Mango course itself, unit by unit and goal by goal. Find your unit, and the explanation is right there.

How to use one
Three ways in
If you are working through a Mango course, find your unit and chapter in the guide and read the articles listed against the goal you are on. They are written to be read alongside the lesson, not instead of it.
If you are teaching, the guide is the quickest way to assign reading that matches where a class actually is. The K-12 side has its own materials at teacher resources.
If you are studying on your own, you may want the library rather than the course order, so start at articles & lessons and pick your language, or look a term up in the grammar glossary.
