Book Overview

An experienced teacher of the early 20th century, Emma Serl used imaginative lessons and short, jargon-free instructions to make learning a pleasure. She made liberal use of writings by the literary giants of our English language heritage, as well as fables, folklore and maxims-the kinds of writing children should know if they are to become well-educated in our rich literary traditions.

Excellent Charlotte Mason style Language progam

This is a perfect book for 2nd & 3rd graders. As a mother of ten, I have found it to be gentle and delightful in its content and format, but a challenge for my children. The expectations for amount of copywork and dictation, as well as memorization of poetry is quite high, but not inappropriate. My children find a great sense of accomplishment when finishing these lessons. I am pleased with the variable content which includes the aforementioned disciplines as well as picture and literary narration, grammar, beginning composition, and word usage. The choices for art and poetry are especially nostalgic and beautiful. It was a wonderful surprise to find so much inside one little book.

Great Expectations Met!

I had previously looked at First Language Lessons for the Well-Trained Mind and English for the Thoughtful Child. I found both titles lacking. I am very pleased with Primary Language Lessons! It has exceeded my expectations! It's a complete language/grammar book for grades 2/3. I would rate this my top recommendation for early elementary grammar/language.

A Gentle Introduction to Grammar For First and Second Grade

I bought this book because I had heard such wonderful reviews from the homeschooling community. When I received it, I was not disappointed. The lessons are thorough and my daughter enjoys doing them! The author uses picture and nature study as well as classic poetry and prose to teach the basics of grammar. There is no teacher preparation time required, and no complicated teacher's manual to follow. This gentle grammar introduction is a joy to use for student and teacher alike. There are two years of engaging lessons for the beginning grammar student, so it's a great buy! You'll love this one.

Extensive practice

Emma Serl created a practical and varied grammar book. I purchased this unsure of what I really was going to be getting. I am pleased. Our homeschooled children find the book's requirements easy to understand but challenging to accomplish. It is recommended for second and third graders, but I simplify the assignments for our first grader, as well. They are learning some grammar basics but don't seem to realize the amount of their effort.No expensive teacher's guide is needed. This is a good price for a practical and easy-to-use format.
