Publisher's Description of Abeka English 11 Homeschool Parent Guide and Student Daily Lessons
Promote an independent course of study with the detailed, daily lessons for English 11. These lesson plans are designed for your child to read, follow, and complete the instructions given for grammar, spelling, vocabulary, poetry, and literature. The parents are prompted to administer and grade tests and quizzes. Reading quizzes are included in the front of this guide along with 2 sets of progress reports. A Guide for the Parent and Grading Procedures are also included for the parent to direct the evaluation portion of the course. A Composition Checksheet, Narrative Essay Evaluation Sheet, and Research Paper Grade Form, are included for the child to follow as he writes. Encourage initiative, self-motivation, and independence with your 11th grader as he completes this work on his own.
Use this abbreviated course for review or to hone grammar and stylistic skills. In many places, students will work to find errors and improve upon lengthier writing samples. This text works alongside the Abeka® English programs, but could be used for any upper-level student needing solid, systematic review. Assignments range from reviewing punctuation, usage, and grammar to reviewing logic, conciseness, and selecting the best style for writing tasks. The Abeka® Handbook of Grammar and Composition (item 060935), is a recommended resource. Answers provided in the teacher manual, and additional quizzes and tests are also available. 90 pgs, pb.
