Fable & Song Teaching Helps : Language Lessons for Grammar Students

Language Arts for Grammar Students is a comprehensive classical grammar and composition course for upper elementary students (4th to 6th grade). Composition lessons are based on the fable exercise of the ancient progymnasmata. Fable & Song contains twenty-eight lessons, each designed around a timeless literary or poetry selection - twelve fables from Aesop, twelve poems, mostly from Robert Louis Stevenson, and four parables of Jesus from the Bible. Every lesson includes: 

• Poetry & Prose- literary analysis of a story or poem 
• Language Logic- grammar and word usage in the context of the literary selection 
• Eloquent Expression- development of writing style 
• Classical Composition- imitation of a worthy literary model 
• Copybook and Dictation- careful and precise reproduction of a worthy literary selection 

The timing of the lessons is flexible to suit a variety of student and classroom needs. Fable & Song is designed for use in the classroom, co-op, or homeschool setting.
