Intermediate Language Lessons (Lingua Mater)

Reprint of Emma Serl's classic language program for fourth, fifth, and sixth grade. Includes writing, oral composition, dictation, copywork, conversation, letter writing, parts of speech, and picture study lessons. Revisions include an expanded sixth grade section, color pictures, and larger format.

The Second volume of Emma Serl's language series makes it easy to teach during the often difficult intermediate years--the 4th, 5th and 6th grades. Miss Serl uses material that both teaches and captures the interest of children.

You will find the writings of Louisa May Alcott, Longfellow, Tennyson, Helen Hunt Jackson, Percy Bysshe SHelley, Edward Everett Hale, George MacDonald, Shakespeare, and other outstanding authors. All are used in a broad range of lessons that encompass every aspect of teaching English including: literature and poetry studies, letter writing, creating an outline, grammar and word ussage, all forms of composition, memorization and oral presentation, debating, and dictation.

Recommended for Ages 9-12.
