Purposeful Design Language Arts: Grade 4 Reading and Literature Teacher Edition E-Book (1-year subscription)

Combine a biblical worldview with a whole-book approach with this language arts course. With its whole-book approach and extensive teacher and student materials (4 in total), this comprehensive language arts program reviews phonics, and builds reading skills, grammar (including diagramming), writing, speaking/listening skills, vocabulary, spelling, and literature studies.

For the complete Language Arts course, the student uses 2 workbooks: one for reading and literature and one for language and writing. For each workbook, you'll need the corresponding teacher guide with detailed lesson plans and reduced copies of student pages. Individual Reading Guides or Literature Guides for each of the Read-Aloud and Student Reader books are included in the Reading and Literature Teacher Guide. Also required is the book 104 Poems of Whimsy and Wisdom by Amy Lykosh. Additional, downloadable teacher resource sheets are available at the publisher's website.
