Grammar for the Well-Trained Mind Core Instructor Text, Years 1-4 By: Susan Wise Bauer, Audrey Anderson
The Grammar for the Well-Trained Mind curriculum is a thorough, easy-to-use grammar program that picks up where the First Language Lessons series left off, giving students in Grades 5 and up the grammar skills needed to write and speak well. Each course combines the three essential elements of language learning: understanding and memorizing rules (prescriptive teaching), repeated exposure to examples of how those rules are used (descriptive instruction), and practice using those rules in exercises and in writing (practical experience)."Color" levels may be used in any order as each workbook contains the same rules and examples-but four completely different sets of exercises and assignments, allowing students to develop a wide-ranging knowledge of how the rules and examples are used in writing.
The Grammar for the Well-Trained Mind Core Instructor Text covers all four years of instruction and includes fully scripted dialog for the teacher, suggested student answers in italics, all rules and examples, and teaching notes that explain any ambiguities and difficulties that might be encountered. Parents and teachers go through the dialog, rules, and examples in this Core Instructor Text while students follow along in the Workbook (sold separately) for the level they are using. 386 pages, softcover. Grade 5 & up.
