Benefits
* Clear and easy. You can do it! We have the materials you need and show you how to use them. You will appreciate the detailed lesson guides that save hours of planning. Each lesson includes points for preparation and teaching procedure. The lesson plans are full of practical tips for effectively teaching concepts and reviewing skills for mastery.
* Spiral reinforcement of learning. There is no time to forget when your child receives regular review and practice as each new concept is built on the old. This reinforcing and building of concepts and skills in a spiral progression throughout the year—and from grade to grade in the Abeka curriculum!—puts learning into long-term memory. Your child will know it!
* Proven success. You want methods and materials that work. See your child achieve the academic excellence and moral character that will leave him equipped for life. Over one million children develop into lifelong learners with Abeka every year.
* Flexibility. Life happens—sickness, special visits from relatives. You have the flexibility to arrange the year's 170 lesson days to allow for life's interruptions.
* Adaptability to your child's needs. Abeka's packaging makes sure that you are not paying for more than you need. The subjects in the Grade 4 Language Arts Kit can be taught in approximately 70 minutes, but you can adjust the pacing for your child's independent study and practice if necessary.
Category Description for Complete Programs - Language Arts
Language arts programs listed in this section cover most areas of language arts (reading/literature, writing, grammar, spelling and handwriting) in one curriculum, although some skill areas may be covered with less intensity than a focused, stand-alone course.
Category Description for Abeka Language Arts
The Abeka® distinctives start very early and flow through all levels, such as a cursive-first handwriting approach (starts in K and reviewed up to 6), thorough grammar (with diagramming), foundation-based composition skills (begins in 1st grade) and listening/speaking skills (including reading aloud and poetry memorization). All with Christian, patriotic-focused content in a spiral format with detailed teacher instruction. In 1st grade, skills introduced in previous years (phonics/reading, optional cursive, poetry, and vocabulary skills) are enriched with creative writing and sentence-level mechanics, weekly spelling tests, and oral reading. In Grade 2, transition to reading comprehension and beginning literature analysis occurs. Grade 3 begins the four-pronged emphasis of reading skills (analysis & discussion), writing (academic & creative), spelling/poetry, and grammar. Grade 4 (Level A) adds speed reading, the writing process, researching, and diagramming. Students refine all skills in Grade 5 (B), aiming for varied reading and writing (emphasizing research skills), as they head for Grade 6 (C), which cements the elementary skills in preparation for Abeka® upper-level courses.
