A highlight is the reading and study of Julius Caesar and The Scarlet Pimpernel. Discussion and essay questions build your teen’s analytic skills.

And new forms of writing, such as critical book reviews, which are part of the Author Research Project. His growing reasoning ability is strengthened through both grammatical concepts and writing applications.

In addition to the 144 vocabulary words, more than 1,000 synonyms, antonyms, and related words are part of this year’s study. Memorizing poems will give him a love for language and an appreciation for the best thoughts presented in the best way.
