Calvert 1st Grade Language Arts is a comprehensive phonics-based language course that integrates phonics, reading, and grammar into one fun-filled homeschool course. Ten colorful worktexts, five vocabulary-controlled readers and a complete teacher's guide make this a great choice for parents looking for an easy-to-use reading program! A set of five beginning-level readers is included.
Through this colorful course, students encounter skills such as rhyming words, consonant digraphs and blends, vowel digraphs, R-controlled vowels, and diphthongs, as well as basic grammar skills to take students from "learning to read" to "reading to learn!"
Language arts programs listed in this section cover most areas of language arts (reading/literature, writing, grammar, spelling and handwriting) in one curriculum, although some skill areas may be covered with less intensity than a focused, stand-alone course.
Calvert Language Arts takes an umbrella approach that wraps reading/phonics, spelling, and handwriting, plus introductory grammar, and composition into a single set of Worktexts. Worktexts provide both textual material and the written response space students need. Special attention will be given to reading well-loved children’s books and non-fiction texts. Preschool has one student workbook and resource book. Kindergarten has two student workbooks with oral tests given quarterly. Starting in Grades 1-5, a full-color, consumable, set of 10 worktexts contain 3-5 sections to complete. Each of the worktexts will take 3-4 weeks to finish, giving a total of 160-180 daily lessons that will take around 45 minutes each. Grade 1 has five Student Readers and in Grade 3, cursive instruction begins. Daily instructional material is written directly into the workbooks, making your student more independent. Each section ends with a self-test and each unit ends with a cumulative unit test.
The detailed Teacher Guides provide teacher help, grading info, record-keeping sheets, alternate unit tests, daily lesson plans, materials lists, optional learning activities, reproducible worksheets and alternate tests, and answer keys. (Reduced student pages only in grades K-1)
