2019 Workshop Talk | 47:51 | K-6, Rhetoric & Composition
Summary
This is a presentation about how to practically implement daily grammar lessons in the logic and rhetoric levels of learning. This talk will discuss the importance of reviewing and maintaining the foundation in grammar that secondary students received during the grammar stage of learning, while also challenging them to build on their knowledge of grammar. This session is designed to encourage and inspire other classical Christian schools and educators as they seek to expand on the excellent foundation of Shurley Grammar by continuing to incorporate grammar instruction at the logic and rhetoric levels with daily grammar practice, a simple, logical,
and repetitive teaching method and grammar curriculum.
