The carefully crafted pedagogy of this book helps students learn the mechanics of grammar while they also see the power of language unfolding before them as they learn to gather and arrange words to express their thoughts clearly and accurately. Students will not merely be able to identify the parts of a sentence, but also will understand how words behave in a sentence. This book is designed so that teachers and students actively engage with each other and with the concepts in each lesson by means of reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Learning is reinforced by the singing of lively chants and songs that correspond to each chapter.
The previous level, Well-Ordered Language Level 2, aided students in mastering the eight parts of speech, along with prepositional phrases; compound elements; subject, object, possessive, interrogative, and relative pronouns; compound sentences; and relative clauses. Any student who has mastered these concepts should be prepared for Well-Ordered Language Level 3. In Book 3A, students will review and strengthen skills already learned while also being introduced to several new concepts. Students will also continue to develop their understanding of diagramming sentences, visualizing the grammatical relationships within increasingly complex sentences.
Note: There will be a total of four levels, each containing a Book A and Book B, and Academic Press will be releasing one level (two books) each year.
