English for the Thoughtful Child, Volume One

Incorporating dictation, memorization, oral composition, and narration, this grammar workbook is structured around Charlotte Mason's approach to learning. Using simple texts to draw and engage children willingly in writing, lessons contain bolded sentences, followed by questions that ask children to analyze what they read-both in terms of comprehension and grammar. Writing exercises and copywork exercises increase in difficulty and will often be written on a separate sheet of paper; oral composition pages feature a classic selection such as Aesop's Fables or a myth that children should recite back in their own words. 99 reproducible pages, softcover. Rule summary included.
