Evaluate literature in light of God’s Word with BJU Press Literature. All levels offer carefully selected excerpts or short stories of Christian and religiously neutral literary selections in multiple genres. The middle grades organize studies by themes. Grades 7 and up include one full-length work to study. As the series progresses, goals shift from reading for pleasure to reading for wisdom, then to analytical reading, delving more deeply into literary analysis in the high school levels. The first two high school years instruct in literary elements, with a Romeo and Juliet study in grade 10. Covering over 70 authors each, the 11th and 12th grades home in on writing from specific locales. The 11th grade American literature covers Colonial through Modern periods and the play The Happy Journey to Trenton and Camden. The 12th grade British Literature covers 8 literature periods from Old English to Modern, including religious literature developments and a Macbeth study. All Teacher Editions contain a copy of the student text with marginal notes, background information, commentary, discussion/essay questions, project ideas, and answers. Homeschool Kits include the Student Books, the Teacher’s Edition, Tests and Tests Answer Keys.
