2026-2027 The Fundamentals of The English Language (Fall Semester Only)

$330.00

Language study is the science of relations and patterns. This class teaches the fundamentals of the English language through an overview of the structure of a sentence, including the parts of speech, inflection, and syntax.  Students who have been learning grammar informally through reading, copywork, and dictation may use this course as a first formal grammar course. The class is also appropriate for any student who wishes a refresher course in grammar before studying a foreign language (such as our Latin, Greek and Anglo-Saxon courses).

We will use The Mother Tongue: Adapted for Modern Students by George Lyman Kittredge, Sarah Louise Arnold, and Amy M. Edwards. Each week, we’ll cover new grammatical concepts, walk through sentence analysis with the new concepts, and review homework together as needed. Because we will be working together to build new skills, class participation is expected (preferably with videos on), and homework completion is required. Students will be assigned 6-10 sentences each week from The Mother Tongue to analyze or label and can expect to spend 15-30 minutes a week on homework. Homework will be checked for comprehension. No final grade will be assigned. Parents may assign a grade if needed.

This course is appropriate for roughly 5 to 9th grade. Older students who need a grammar refresher are also welcome.
