Total Language Plus




Seeking to do a study in literature and browsing through a variety of products and reviews led to the purchase of Learning Language Plus “The Hobbit.” While I wanted something which was more analytical the up points are that there was no purchase of a spelling curriculum, it is incorporated into the program. While there is some grammar an additional program is highly recommended. The spelling words are also used for vocabulary as well and aid in the retention of the new words students are introduced to such as flummoxed and necromancer. While the book is to be read the first day we have done one chapter a day when there are multiple chapters to be read. The reading worksheet has the questions broken down by chapters making it easy to complete as the chapters are read. All worksheets are broken down through out the week by letters, so on Monday the “A” part of each worksheet is completed. The program is to be completed within a seven week time period, however if we need to take more time we will. Total Language Plus is easy to use and is available in a variety of titles which are geared towards 4th through 12th grade. There are different books which are utilized by two different grades such as 3rd and 4th however high school level is grouped differently. Guides can be purchased separately or with the book, prices vary from title to title on all materials for the program. It is also important to note that this program is done from a Christian perspective. I purchased this from Rainbow Resource, it is not available to view on there sight.
