Does your textbook have a grammatical component, either in the table of contents or as inserts within each unit? If so, make a list of the first five or six grammar items in the textbook.

Why do you think these items are sequenced in the way they are? Is the grammar in Unit 1, for example, easier than the grammar in Unit 2? If so, what makes it easier? Why did the textbook authors sequence the grammar items in the way that they did?
