The Language Arts 5 program concentrates on student mastery of outlining
and writing a good paragraph. Students learn to build several different
types of paragraphs, such as descriptive, cause and effect, sequence,
and comparison paragraphs. The creative writing assignments allow
students to practice constructing good paragraphs as they study the
various types, and assignment projects coordinate with themed program
topics.
Students will also continue with their grammar studies, working on more
advanced grammar concepts. Students will learn to recognize the parts of
speech they already know as they are used in different parts of a
sentence; for example, students already know what a noun is, and this
year will learn how to recognize a noun when used as a subject, object
of the preposition, predicate nominative, appositive, noun of direct
address and more. Cursive handwriting instruction also continues.
The Language Arts 5 program includes the resources listed below, and a
guidebook that offers creative writing & reading to coordinate with
several themed programs. It also offers your choice of several reader
sets, so you'll want to choose the set that includes the themed readers
that coordinate with your themed program. Be sure to look for these sets
