Description
At Level 2, students are introduced to punctuation, grammar, and writing. They will learn about nouns, compound words, subjects/predicates, possessive nouns, combining sentences, commas, interjections, action verbs, homophones, synonyms/antonyms, and specific verbs such as be, has, and see, as well as pronouns like this and that. Scripture memorization and story creation begins. This course does assume that you’ll add independent reading for your student. 476 pgs. ~ Ruth
Publisher's Description of Language Lessons for a Living Education 2
Students will move beyond pages of text to make real-world connections as this exciting new series guides your young learner toward mastery of reading, grammar, and vocabulary, as well as the mechanics of communication and writing. Utilizing phonics, observation, and reading comprehension through poems, stories, and real books as the foundation, your student will start forming basic sentences.
This story-based approach, focused on young students Claire and Micah, uses Charlotte Mason ideas for the modern homeschool student with character building themes. Each quarter has five stories, two picture studies (one of which is Bible-based), and two poems (one of which is a Psalm). Using the spelling words and the Dictionary Worksheets student will create their very own dictionary as they move week by week through the material.
Developing early reading and narration skills, by the end of the course, students should be able to comfortably write up to three sentences at a time.
This curriculum incorporates picture study, memorization, punctuation, spelling, vocabulary, observation, poems, psalms, letters, and practical application through creative writing all working towards the mastery of reading and grammar, as well as the mechanics of communication and writing. Equivalent to a second grade level.
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 Language Lessons For A Living Education
This Charlotte Mason-flavored curriculum weaves together composition, handwriting practice, memorization, picture studies, narration, and other writing skills alongside labeling-style grammar, mechanics, vocabulary, and more. The elementary levels target skills by levels rather than grade, gradually guiding students in all ELA skills. So, you have the freedom to select a level based on your student’s skills. Writing assignments begin in Level 1 with observation skills, and end with descriptive writing in Level 6. Quarterly, brief assessments are provided. High school levels target skills by grade, intensifying the demands while maintaining the same techniques. Master Books also allows additional free PDF resources for each level. Some reading suggestions are included; you’ll add your own reading books at every level. Students study, memorize, and apply Scripture in lessons (NASB in 1-6, ESV in 9). Each level except for Level 2 requires an additional Biblically-oriented text. Level 1 uses 4 additional texts. Levels 3-5 use 101 Favorite Stories from the Bible; Level 6 adds The 10-Minute Bible; and Level 7 requires God’s Story. This last book presents God’s redemptive story through 120 Bible narratives. Masterbooks.com provides free digital lessons so students in Levels 3-5 can participate in this Bible study, replacing the Day 4 lessons in their student texts. Choose from complete packages or student consumables.
Each consumable 3-hole punched Course Book is a student/teacher combo. Short teacher helps are written in the text and a hefty Teacher’s Aid section provides plentiful reproducible resources like optional games, spelling words, copywork practice, grammar study sheets, answer keys, and more, based on the level. Each level is a one-year course. The new Grade 9 is the first high school course available and uses the full text of The Pilgrim’s Progress as a core text (a specific edition is required). ~ Ruth
