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 Purple Level covers one year of instruction. Grades 5 and up. 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. 386 pages, softcover. The Grammar Guidebook is also designed to be used through all four years of this course. It assembles all the principles that govern the English language, from basic definitions ('A noun names a person, place, thing, or idea') through advanced sentence structure, into one handy reference work. The rules are illustrated with examples drawn from great literature, along with classic and contemporary works of science, history, and mathematics. 95 pages, hardcover. The Purple Workbook features lessons that re-state the primary rule or rules being taught, then dive into exercises that carefully build understanding. Charts, graphics, and examples are integrated as needed, and regular review is incorporated throughout. Exercises often draw from literature, novels, histories, biographies, and science books to encourage students to see how the rules they're learning operate in real literature. This workbook covers one year of instruction. 579 pages, softcover. The Purple Workbook Key makes grading easy, with exercises from the Student Workbook with the correct answers overlaid, explanations for the instructor, and guidance as to when the answers might be ambiguous. 417 pages, softcover. This set includes: - Core Instructor Text
- The Grammar Guidebook
