Time for composition, my daughter loves writing stories especially got to do with animals .
At the same time we may not let children neglect either of these delightful studies. The time will come when they will delight in words, the beauty and propriety of words; when they will see that words are consecrated as the vehicle of truth and are not to be carelessly tampered with in statement or mutilated in form; and we must prepare them for these later studies.- Charlotte Mason Vol. 6 p 151

Living Literature Grammar Packs encourage a love of the language arts through rich literature and simple lessons.
Living Literature Grammar Packs is a series of 15 weekly language arts lessons centered around various twaddle-free fiction, non-fiction, and historical fiction picture books.
Each week, your 3rd- to 5th-grade student is asked to read one of the books and complete a packet of language arts activities that relate to the book.
The lessons are short and sweet, yet cover a vast array of language arts skills in the areas of:
- Grammar
- Reading comprehension
- Reading strategies
- Oral language skills
- Narration
- Writing
- Poetic devices
- Critical Thinking
