MORNING & AFTERNOON GRAMMAR
We use Claritas Publising for our memory work and English Grammar program. Claritas Publishing is a group of Bible-believing Protestants and Catholics who have written and compiled grammar stage memory work consisting of Scripture, Latin, English Grammar, Math, Science, History, Geography, Timeline, and Hymns with a goal of cultivating wisdom and virtue by nourishing the child’s soul on truth, goodness, and beauty so that, in Christ, the student is enabled to better know, glorify, and enjoy God. Our Memory Work Guides and their accompanying audio align with four historical cycles. For the 2023-2024 school year we will be in cycle 2. The Cycles correlate with Susan Wise Bauer’s Story of the World.
