Spelling lists with spelling rules are incorporated at this age. Students also study figures of speech, metaphors, imagery and narratives including writing and giving a narrative presentation. To enrich the reading experience students complete several literature compositions, including The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, The Mayflower Conflict, Paul Revere's Ride and Aunt Polly Shedd's Brigade.

My children are so happy!

I cannot praise this curriculum enough. Such a well rounded curriculum that allows my children to teach themselves and have more responsibility over their education. I love the character traits built into it. We have tried many different kinds throughout our homeschooling journey and they always fought me on having to do school with others we tried. My kids are starting their 2nd books now in some of the subjects and they absolutely love this kind of schoolwork. It has taken a lot of stress off my shoulders as all I have to do is grade and go over things they don’t understand. THAT is how well rounded and amazing this curriculum is. The examples and practice really helps them grasp the information given to them. It is truly a hidden gem and I wish more people would take the time to post reviews. Yes, it may be on the pricier side compared to others BUT, it is a full curriculum- all of it is amazing English, Math, Science and Social Studies. Occasionally there are some errors in the keys but I have not seen any in the curriculum itself. So I have no issue with the keys having printing or human error, I just let them know and they review and fix it. Again, may be pricey but these books are amazing and compared to private school or the hassle of piecing together each subject from various companies, the price is so totally worth it!!
