The Abeka
language arts program integrates and balances the learning of language 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 make great progress 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. This Grade 4 Language Arts Child Kit contains the reading
books, language, writing, and spelling/vocabulary texts, and correlated
assessments for the grade 4 language arts program. Combine this kit with the Grade
4 Language Arts Parent Kit (sold separately), and you can confidently guide your fourth
grader through a year of academic excellence in language arts. He will continue
building a foundation for lifelong learning and success.
Kit Features
· Reading—Reading from a wide
variety of authors and genres in his four-story collections gives your child
insight into his world and inspires him with Christian ideals and spiritual
values. Watch his reading comprehension and vocabulary take a leap with the
added emphasis on reading speed and comprehension skills. This kit includes the
newly updated reading program.
· Grammar and Composition—You will
be thrilled to see your fourth grader become more comfortable with correct
grammar in conversation and composition.
· Spelling, Vocabulary, and Poetry—A
straightforward teach/practice/test approach makes spelling “second nature” to
your young writer. He will also learn to spell, define, and use 5–10 vocabulary
words in each lesson. And what an accomplishment when he can recite from memory
all 6 poems!
· Penmanship—Daily penmanship
practice begins with a review of cursive letter formation and then graduates
into creative writing and journal entries.
