Using Language Well Book 3 Bundle 2nd Edition

Using Language Well gives your student Charlotte Mason language arts lessons in English, grammar, and spelling. Your student will grow in language arts skills as he studies passages from classic literature, Scripture, and great quotations. Short lessons take about 15-20 minutes, with the parent and student working together.

A student should begin Using Language Well, Book 3 when he is comfortable with reading and handwriting at about a fifth-grade level.

This bundle includes:

• Using Language Well, Book 3 Teacher Book – provides answers and guidance for each lesson
• Using Language Well, Book 3 Student Book – consumable.

If teaching multiple students, you will need to purchase one student book for each additional student.

Concepts Included in Book 3: Parts of Speech, Part 1
Common Nouns • Proper Nouns • Pronouns • Action Verbs • Helping Verbs • Linking Verbs • Adjectives • Articles • Verb Tense

• Many English points from previous Using Language Well books are reviewed in Book 3. New English points are introduced using a guided-discovery approach, encouraging your student to look closely for patterns and discover English usage, capitalization, and punctuation guidelines for himself.
• A study of the parts of speech is begun in this book. Your student will learn about nouns, including common nouns and proper nouns; pronouns and antecedents; adjectives; articles; and verbs, including action verbs, linking verbs, and helping verbs. The remaining parts of speech will be covered in Using Language Well, Book 4.
• Spelling words are drawn naturally from the literary passages featured in each lesson. Your student will be assigned a portion of each passage to study and then write as you dictate it to him.
• The writing component in Book 3 is conjoined with the narrations that are required in other school subjects, such as history, geography, Bible, and science. As your student learns English and grammar concepts in Using Language Well, he will be expected to apply that knowledge to his written narrations. Rubrics are included to help you hold your student accountable for what he has learned.
