These teacher editions provide multiple tools to encourage growth and maturity in students’ reading skills. A significant amount of teacher material guides activities and instruction, with possible student answers in blue. In addition, reduced student pages include answers. Each chapter begins with highlights from the specific focus of each of the 4 foundational strands (grammar; writing; speaking/listening; vocabulary). Moments with the Master sections serve as devotional material for you and your students. While many activities suggest discussions and group involvement, much can be done effectively in a home environment. Includes 481 pages, with a spiral-bound softcover/hardcover combo.
