Calvert 5th Grade Language Arts incorporates writing, spelling, vocabulary, reading, and grammar into one dynamic course. Colorful worktexts are filled with lessons on story elements, written reports, poetry, word usage, and reading fluency. Since each self-paced unit can be completed in as little as three to four weeks, students experience a sense of accomplishment at the completion of each one! In addition, regular self tests and an end-of-unit test provide assessment of student progress. An essential teacher's guide is included to provide important teaching supplements, such as instructional notes and answer keys, as well as additional resources and activities.
