Why did you choose this?
Does this give thorough writing instruction for the essays or does it assume they already know how to format the different types of essays?
Language Lessons for High School V2 gives a basic overview of each type of essay: comparison, contrast, descriptive, narrative, persuasive, and creative writing. After the basic overview of the particular type of essay, this book shows an example of that type of essay and encourages the student to analyze it. Then, it teaches brainstorming, outlining, and how to write introduction/body/conclusion. it is not as thorough or as step-by-step directed as Institute for Excellence in Writing (IEW) or Jump In Writing (Apologia); however, it does give basic instruction on the different types of essays and how to compose them. It seems to work well for review and writing practice for my sophomore who used IEW earlier this year. It could stand alone for a student who is a natural writer or who has had some previous instruction. Language Lessons for High School V2 also includes a great deal of dictation/editing exercises; the parent reads a paragraph aloud, while the student writes the information in a notebook. Afterwards, the student uses the textbook to go back and make corrections to his/her dictation writing. Dictation is an effective way to teach correct writing/grammar/spelling. All in all, this program teaches writing skills in a natural (and usually painless) way, but it can be frustrating for students who want more step-by-step instructions.
Does this item contain sectarian content?
There is Christian content in this Language Arts program.
Having used this publisher the previous year with my student, I happily purchased the next level to continue our journey.
We love Queen Homeschool and have used their grammar books since Grade 1! They're wonderful! Short lessons, lots of review, and easy to understand.
I have used previous/earlier ones for the past two years and LOVE THEM
We love Charlotte Mason
