Description
Perfect for teaching a broad overview of language arts skills, including reading, spelling, phonics, literature, composition, handwriting, and typing. If your child knows the letter sounds and can blend simple CVC words, they will be ready for this kit. Kit B includes “Writing the Alphabet” and Lesson Books 5–8, including an educator guide and diagnostic tests. Books include McGuffy’s Eclectic Primer; The Story Hour; Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland; Just So Stories; and a biography of George Washington. Manipulatives include Montessori grammar symbols in a wooden box with lid, 28 mp3 language songs, and a letter tile kit. By the end of these approximately 2 years of lessons, students will be reading close to a grade 3 reading level. ~ Ruth
Publisher's Description of ShillerLearning Language Arts Kit B
Reading, spelling, phonics, literature, composition, handwriting, and typing for 6-to-9-year-olds. Your child is ready for this level when he or she knows the letter names and sounds and are beginning to blend simple CVC words. (Consider popular Language Arts Kit A if you are beginning or still working on those skills.) This comprehensive all-in-one language arts program features Montessori-based, scripted, multi-sensory activities that make abstract concepts like parts of speech concrete, then gracefully transition the child to the abstract. Language Arts Kit B uses the same, proven methodology found in ShillerLearning Math Kits I, II, and Fractions.
Category Description for Shiller Learning Language Arts
Based on the three-point instruction method (“this is,”
“show me,” and “what is?”), this program covers phonics, reading instruction,
and a combination of language arts skills, including parts of speech, retelling
stories, sharing emotions, touch typing, rhyming, describing, making comparisons,
giving directions, identifying sonnets, and much more. Lessons are open-and-go,
requiring no preparation, and vary in length and complexity.
There is also great variety in the content, which is why the teacher is encouraged to skip lessons if the student is not ready for its content. Since one of the basic premises of Montessori education is that children are natural learners, the teacher's role is to provide a learning-friendly environment and the proper tools. Students are usually the best gauge of their own competence and will know when they have closure on a topic, so be prepared to be flexible and sensitive. The back cover of each lesson book can be used to record when a lesson is completed.
