English Lessons Through Literature

Short, three day per week lessons keep Language Arts from taking all of your time.
Children interact with books, not just passages from books.
Writing is taught through imitation.
Spelling is taught through prepared dictation.
Copywork is included from the literature, the Bible, maxims, and poetry.
Students rewrite sentences from the stories, changing the sentences through grammatical changes. This old exercise from Erasmus teaches children to say the same thing in many different ways.
Children write outlines, then write papers from their outlines.
