Spectrum Language Arts 2024 Grade 5
Students will focus in-depth on parts of speech (including regular, irregular, helping, and linking verbs), implement proofreading marks, and practice editing letters. Students will engage with multiple types of sentence structure (including interrogative, imperative, compound, and complex), while also familiarizing themselves with fragments and run-ons. Capitalization and punctuation are studied in depth. In usage, students will review comparatives, superlatives, affixes, synonyms, homophones, and metaphoric language. Students begin reading larger passages, including a short biography of Hans Christian Andersen and national monuments. A few QR codes provide links to explanatory videos on regular and irregular verbs, simple sentences, and quotation marks. Font size is 12 pt. Includes an answer key. 192 perforated pages, pb. ~ Ruth

A long-time favorite for refining and overviewing skills, this language-focused workbook series includes several visual-appealing updates: easy-to-read text, a clean layout with just-enough graphics, and kaleidoscope-colored borders. Chapters explain each skill taught, provide a checklist, definitions, tips, and enrichment ideas. Check your student’s skills using periodic learning checkpoints, chapter reviews, and a final test. Sentences and short reading passages are child-friendly, with content (particularly from Grade 4 up) pulled from multiple subjects that represent our multi-cultural history and population, holidays, etc., but is religiously neutral. See individual descriptions for content highlights.
Each grade level divides skills into 6 chapters, each one beginning with a teacher’s overview of skills, a checklist of key skills, and helpful definitions. Each lesson starts with a brief instruction/overview and finishes with a short student exercise. Levels progress systematically, starting with introductory skills in K and finishing with more nuanced skills such as verb moods, stylistic devices like voice, figures of speech, and word roots by Grade 8. Grade K begins with letter recognition, capitalization, and punctuation. Then it progresses to parts of speech and usage/vocabulary (skills which continue in grades 1-3). Grade 1 begins parts of speech studies. Starting with Grade 4, students annually work on parts of speech, sentence structure, language/vocabulary, and capitalization/punctuation. For books in grades 3-5, a handful of short videos supplement instruction via QR codes. These are 2–3-minute video explanations of grammatical concepts on YouTube®. Answers to lessons, reviews, and tests included. Not reproducible. Includes 192 perforated pages, pb. ~ Ruth
