Perfect fit!
Review by Sarah
We have tried so many different LA curriculum's and this is the perfect fit for my daughter, she loves the creativity with writing poems.
Amazing language program
Review by Beth
This language course is so well done. It takes away the fluff of other language programs available without compromising on mastery of literacy. I am so excited that the course is expanding into high school grades!
I love this program!
Review by Adonna
I have used a lot of different ELA curriculum and I have really liked this one.
Really enjoyed it!
Review by Kristy
The lessons were easy to follow, and the concepts were taught well. I would definitely recommend this series.
Love the language lessons series!
Review by Ashley
I used level 3 and level 6 this year and it’s been smooth sailing! The book is setup so nicely, each day is labeled for you so you know exactly how many pages to do each day. The top of the page instructs the child on what new concept they are learning and provides examples, then the bottom of the page allows them to practice on their own. My daughter loves reading the Bible stories and copying the pictures. The “Make your own crossword puzzle” spelling game is def. a favorite at our house as well. This curriculum makes language arts fun and tear free! I have already ordered the new Level 7 and it looks amazing as well, can’t wait to get started on that in the fall!
Love it!
Review by Ellen
My daughter has been enjoying this curriculum for the past four years now. I love how she can complete her work independently. Starting this year (6th grade), I've also included a separate writing curriculum into her workload.
A great fit
Review by Heather
This series has been a great fit for my son who doesn’t particularly enjoy writing/composition. Just the right amount of writing/grammar practice without being too overwhelming while also including spelling, reading comprehension, copy work, and Bible study. It’s really an all-in-one language arts program! We started the series the first year Level 5 came out and thankfully Level 6 came out the next year just when we needed it. We’ve pieced together language arts for a few years now as we’ve waited for the series to continue and are excited to get back to it and use Level 9 next year.
Quality Language Arts Book

These easy to follow lessons and pre-made teacher lesson plans are amazing. You can take your books with you. It's so convenient.
Love this book
Review by Jennifer
My son and I really enjoyed this book. It was interesting and easy to follow. I wish Master Books had a comprehensive language arts book like this for the higher grades. Would highly recommend.
