Voyages in English, K-8 — Loyola Press

The latest revision of the time-tested grammar and writing program. Teaches grammar and writing as essential and related skills, presenting concepts in a balanced approach that empowers students to become effective readers, writers, speakers, listeners, and thinkers. Aligned with Common Core State Standards and correlated to the National Council of Teachers of English Standards, Voyages in English ensures mastery of skills and improved performance on standardized tests as it cultivates a lifelong passion for writing and grammar. With the Kindergarten level, even very young children can begin to build a solid foundation in language and literacy. In the primary grades, grammar and the mechanics of writing are reinforced to equip students with skills to speak and write with clarity, correctness, and purpose. Voyages in English for grades 3-8 prepares students to become literate masters of the written and spoken word. All levels encourage students with varied learning styles. The program is divided into two distinct parts--Part 1: Grammar, and Part 2: Written and Oral Communication--with integration opportunities build in. Three additional writing chapters per grade include genres such as argumentative writing, literary analysis, and poetry to help foster critical thinking skills in young writers. (©2018)
