Shurley English reaches all of the learning styles of students while using repetition, fun, and student-teacher interaction to help them learn difficult English skills. Knowledge of complex grammar and writing skills is not learned over night. It is learned over time from the simplest to the most complex tasks. The porcess is actually a series of small, incremental, and sequential steps that must be learned precisely and thoroughly during the learning process. The Shurley English program uses a concrete set of questions about each word in a sentence to teach students how all the parts of a sentence fit together.

Information regarding the Kits:
Materials for each grade level are sold in a kit package. A kit contains everything needed to teach one child for an entire school year. Each kit contains the following 3 items:

Teacher's Manual: The teacher's manual is the heart of the program at every grade level. There are 5 lessons per chapter. Each lesson opens with a planning box, which contains the lesson objectives. The scripted lessons provide you with the exact words for the Question & Answer Flows, questioning strategies, and the teaching techniques that make this program consistent for all grade levels. The script is especially helpful for parents who are new to homeschooling or Shurley English. Each chapter can be finished in one week. A lesson takes approximately 20-45 minutes to complete. Grammar, language skills, and writing are taught in each chapter.

Student Workbook: Levels 1-6 use workbooks rather than traditional textbooks for your child to practice and test their acquired knowledge and skills. Special emphasis is placed on parent-child interaction and performance. Each workbook contains a Jingle Section, a Reference Section, a Practice Section, and a Test Section. The Jingle Section contains all the jingles. The Reference Section includes vocabulary words, guided practices, samples, guidelines, and charts. The Practice Section provides extra practice on the various skills taught before the skills are tested. The Test Section contains the tests for each chapter. Each test is divided into 4 basic areas: grammar, vocabulary, language skills, and a summary of the things learned for the week.

Introductory CD (Audio): The introductory CD provides the jingles and the Question & Answer Flows for the Introductory Sentences found in the Teacher's Manual. May be used to demonstrate jingles and Question & Answer Flows to children. May be used as a resource for the parents.

Homeschoolers' Comments

Students who have a solid command of the language, coupled with a confidence in writing, will enjoy greater success not only in every subject matter, but in future careers. Complex grammar and writing skills are not learned overnight. It is important to proceed slowly, from the simplest to the most complex tasks. Skills are presented in a logical learning order, and there is a step-by-step method for teaching concepts that reaches the visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles of students. Just enough repetition is used to ensure mastery of each concept taught before proceeding to more difficult concepts. Students are taught how to merge foundational skills with the writing process. Recommended highly!
