Time for SOMETHING NEW! How Memoria Press Structures Third Grade Literature Curriculum

In third grade, things get pretty different when it comes to the literature curriculum. And today, on Novel Thoughts, we explore the Essential Questions model that have helped homeschool parents and children come to understand, appreciate, analyze, and explore the core themes and values from the Memoria Press curriculum.
Moving forward in our show, Novel Thoughts will unpack each book from the same questions that we ask in our literature study guides.
Literature study guides train students to become active readers. Our guides focus on vocabulary, spelling, comprehension, and composition skills. Each lesson includes a word study to help students build vocabulary. The comprehension questions challenge students to consider what they have read, identify the important content of each story, and compose clear, concise answers (a difficult skill at any age). Writing is thinking, and good questioning stimulates the child to think and write.
We hope you enjoy this episode!
