Introducing Analytical Grammar
Erin Karl, the author’s daughter, will explain how A. G. differs from other programs on the market. You can teach this important subject, thoroughly and comprehensively, in much less time and with less repetition. It is recommended in The Well Trained Mind, Simply Charlotte Mason, and The Old Schoolhouse magazine, and received an A rating from Homeschoolingfromtheheart.com.
Teaching the Essay and Research Paper
Examine student-tested units for teaching the literary essay and the fully-annotated research paper. Via Robin Finley’s materials and entertaining video, you’ll learn to teach—and evaluate—these vital writing and organization skills. You’ll come away feeling very “empowered”. These inexpensive units will give you everything you need to get started right away.
A Different Approach to Grammar
The traditional approach to teaching grammar can result in needless repetition and years and years spent on a small (but important) subject. There is another way that will free up time and really help your kids “get it.” Erin will show you this way to teach grammar, punctuation, and usage - all the “mechanical” aspects of good writing. Your child will achieve a deep level of understanding of the structure of our language and how to punctuate it correctly. You will come away from this workshop with an awareness of grammar that you probably never had before!
Beyond the Book Report
“Read that book and write me a two page report.” There’s SO much more to book reports! This exciting new curriculum, intended for middle schoolers, incorporates literary terms, poetry and poetic devices, PowerPoint presentations, and newspaper writing into an array of different kinds of books reports and responses. No more boring papers! Each unit is rubric-based, easy-to-use, and comprehensive. The program is designed to be covered in “chunks” throughout middle school and uses videos for some of the teaching. Everything’s included! It’s time to get beyond the tedious old book report!
