Publisher's Description of Language Arts 5 Child Kit (3rd Edition)
The Abeka language arts program integrates and balances the learning of subject matter with the development of language skills. Grammar, word usage, mechanics, spelling, vocabulary, reading, and penmanship are taught, practiced, and reviewed thoroughly. Your child will become even more proficient in the skills of cursive writing, oral reading and interpretation, reading with speed and comprehension, clear and correct oral and written communication, and logical thinking. The Grade 5 Language Arts Child Kit contains texts and correlated assessments for the grade 5 language arts program—10 items total. (Also highly recommended are the novels Rosa and Noah Webster: A Man Who Loved Words for book reports, sold separately.) Combine this kit with the Grade 5 Language Arts Parent Kit, and you can confidently teach and guide your fifth grader through a year of academic excellence in language arts. He will be building a foundation for lifelong learning and success.
Kit Features
* Reading—Reading from a wide variety of selections and genres in his three story collections and two recommended novels inspires your child with Christian ideals and spiritual values. The program also provides instruction and practice in reading speed and comprehension skills development.
* Grammar and Composition—Fifth graders learn to use their language naturally from the useful, practical way that grammar is taught in conjunction with composition, research, and oral usage.
* Spelling, Vocabulary, and Poetry—A straightforward teach/practice/test approach makes spelling "second nature" to your young writer. The interesting weekly lists cover such topics as home, French words, food, and more. Your child will also learn to spell, define, and use 10–20 vocabulary words in each lesson. And what an accomplishment when he can recite from memory all 6 poems!
* Penmanship—Your child will begin daily penmanship practice with a review of "trouble-maker" formations and then graduate into creative writing and journal entries.
Category Description for Complete Programs - Language Arts
Language arts programs listed in this section cover most areas of language arts (reading/literature, writing, grammar, spelling and handwriting) in one curriculum, although some skill areas may be covered with less intensity than a focused, stand-alone course.
Category Description for Abeka Language Arts
The Abeka® distinctives start very early and flow through all levels, such as a cursive-first handwriting approach (starts in K and reviewed up to 6), thorough grammar (with diagramming), foundation-based composition skills (begins in 1st grade) and listening/speaking skills (including reading aloud and poetry memorization). All with Christian, patriotic-focused content in a spiral format with detailed teacher instruction. In 1st grade, skills introduced in previous years (phonics/reading, optional cursive, poetry, and vocabulary skills) are enriched with creative writing and sentence-level mechanics, weekly spelling tests, and oral reading. In Grade 2, transition to reading comprehension and beginning literature analysis occurs. Grade 3 begins the four-pronged emphasis of reading skills (analysis & discussion), writing (academic & creative), spelling/poetry, and grammar. Grade 4 (Level A) adds speed reading, the writing process, researching, and diagramming. Students refine all skills in Grade 5 (B), aiming for varied reading and writing (emphasizing research skills), as they head for Grade 6 (C), which cements the elementary skills in preparation for Abeka® upper-level courses.
