Veritas Press

Level: 7-12

“With the word “progymnasmata” showing up here and there, homeschoolers are becoming familiar with this collection of rhetorical exercises that has endured with success within the Western Tradition. This was the classical Greek method of building up the student’s reasoning and articulation skills through a series of interrelated, rhetorical exercises. Learning to write and speak more persuasively is a worthwhile investment of time and energy for the advanced student who already has a firm grasp of grammar. This series of 31 lessons is a teacher-oriented collection of lessons that the teacher can use to help teach rhetoric. It’s not a workbook intended to teach the student rhetoric. A model check sheet is provided to help with grading. Please note there is Christian content.” Rainbow Resource
