ESL: Diagramming Sentences

http://members.cox.net/teachro/ English Grammar Website

While most American schools have given up on diagramming sentences, ESL students, who are taught English largely through grammar, might do well to bring back diagramming exercises. The advantage of diagramming is that relationships of words in a sentence make more sense when shown in a pattern. English is a difficult language...any assistance in making it easier to understand is appreciated and embraced by foreign students.
