A one-semester course for grades 4 or 5 and up
This curriculum is designed for teachers and students to actively engage with each other and with the grammatical concepts in each lesson, using language skills—reading, writing, speaking, and listening—along with physical movement, songs, and chants. Through Well-Ordered Language’s unique, creative, and orderly method of analyzing the grammatical functions of the parts of speech, students will find the mastery of grammar achievable, meaningful, and delightful.
Full program includes:
Well-Ordered Language Level 2A (Student Edition) Students will not merely be able to identify the parts of a sentence, but also understand how words behave in a sentence.
