Lingua Mater, Primary Language Lessons

Description

<p>Have you ever used a book and just kept thinking about the changes you wouldmake? Perhaps that was the experience of Margot Davidson. Taking a classic <em>Primary Language Lessons</em> by Emma Serl she tweaked it just a bit.The result is all the warmth of the original with just a little morepracticality, more beauty, and more applicability. The same wonderful balancebetween oral and written work has been preserved along with all the basicelements copywork/dictation, picture study, memorization selections,grammar sequences, and composition. Some of the pictures are now in full color,and some are changed to appeal more to young readers. Also, some changes weremade to bring it in line with today's English. Already flexible (could beused as either a full third grade course or spread over second and thirdgrade), some of the exercises toward the end of the 164 lessons have beenbroadened, making them more appropriate for students at the end of third grade.Perhaps the most noticeable change is the typesetting, which is modern; thepages having much more "white space" and an added coil-binding making it somuch easier to use for copywork or for "teacherwork." ~ Janice</p>
