Ancient History-Based Writing Lessons Teacher/StudentCombo Sixth Edition

Description

New 6th Edition for 2021. This Combo includes both the Student Book and the Teacher's Manual in one convenient set.

The Ancient History-Based Writing Lessons Teacher Manual includes reduced copies of all student pages. Accompanying teacher notes include specific insight into structures/styles being taught, vocabulary instruction, games, review, motivation ideas, and checklists. Suggested responses for many student activities are given (not the same as an answer key) but answers are provided for vocabulary quizzes. Information on how to access to course pdf downloads is also provided. These downloads include reproducible checklists, vocabulary cards, and optional material.

The Student Book is consumable and provides all source texts as well as student pages. Reproducible (for families), all information the student needs is included in this book and, accordingly, the Student Resource Packet is no longer provided as a download. Some optional material as well as reproducible checklists are still available as pdf downloads with access information included in both the Student and Teacher Book.
