Primary Language Lessons
An experienced teacher of the early 20th century, Emma Serl recognized the two things necessary for teaching proper English: capture the child's interest and drill, drill, drill.Primary Language Lessons is a drill book, but with a difference. Imaginative lessons and short, jargon-free instructions for teachers make it a pleasure for both student and teacher. Emma Serl makes liberal use of writings by the literary giants of our English language heritage, as well as fables, folklore and maxims--the kinds of writing children should know if they are to become well educated in our rich literary traditions.Recommended for Ages 7-9.
