Build language arts skills through the wonders of "living" literature! Keep skills within the context of literature, giving children a better understanding of how these concepts actually work, and reinforcing their correct usage. 36 weekly lessons are divided into daily plans, and centered around four book studies:Carry On, Mr. Bowditch by Jean Latham, The Bronze Bow by Elizabeth George Speare, Big Red by Jim Kjelgaard, and The Horse and His Boy by C.S.
