Description:

This comprehensive grammar class with light writing is taught using a non-traditional approach and program (Grammar Castle & The Kingdom of Writing) that utilizes classical and Christian literature. The sentences draw on Biblical excerpts which feed the soul along with classical literature with which any college-bound student should be familiar. The content is thorough and medium-paced; however, homework may be adjusted to meet the needs of individual students.

This course uses a metaphorical kingdom to better relate grammar knowledge to students. King Verb and Queen Noun have quite a story to tell. Before they met, no one in the kingdom could write a sentence, a clause, or even a phrase. Poor writing was rampant! Sadly, Sir Run-Ons-A-Lot and the Knights of the Wrong Table had struck terror in the Kingdom of Writing. However, the kingdom was saved by the new king and queen and by the Knights of the Write Table. Join me as we discover the Kingdom of Writing through adventures in Grammar Castle.
