Aligned to Memoria Press’s Latin programs, English Grammar Recitation focuses on mastery of the English grammar rules, through drills, dictation exercises, and brief workbook exercises. Some diagramming is included. While coordinated to Memoria Press Latin, this program may be used with any Latin program or for standalone, catechism-based instruction. Previously learned grammar rules are reviewed at each level. The required Handbook is a comprehensive list of 150 grammar rules used in the program. The course is divided into five levels (books).
