Category Description for Bju Press English / Writing & Grammar
For Grades 2 through 12, Bob Jones offers an English (Writing & Grammar) program to train students in communicating Biblically and effectively. Both oral and written skills are developed, with increasing emphasis on composition at the upper levels. Everything that you would expect in a writing and grammar program is here from mechanics, to word types, grammar (including parts of speech and diagramming), and all types of writing (including journaling, analysis, and various composition tasks). Courses integrate Christian references and will help students apply a Biblical worldview in communication by recalling, explaining, evaluating, formulating, and applying Biblical themes. Teacher’s Editions contain daily lesson plans, additional and differentiated educational suggestions, and answers to the student worktext exercises in wrap-around format. Student worktexts are consumable, and at each grade level, different themes and tasks are introduced in a progressively challenging way. Assessments provide consumable, ready-to-use tests for each chapter; answers are found in the Assessment Key. Home School Kits contain 2-part Teacher's Editions, consumable worktexts, consumable assessments, and an assessments answer key. See grade level descriptions for specific program goals, materials, and assignments. Additional/supplemental materials are no longer found on Teacher CD-ROMs. Instead, these materials are now either included in the TE or are not necessary for home use. You’ll see references to Teacher Tools Online, the TextbookHub, and BJU’s Homeschool Hub. The first two are designed for Christian school teaching needs and only available for schools. The Homeschool Hub is available free to any home educator with account setup and provides scheduling, calendar, gradebook, and planning tools that are not course specific. ~ Ruth
