No matter what your opinion about "good literature", this course will work for you, since it doesn't tell you what beautiful literature is, but rather teaches how to think with the skills of observation, deduction and evaluation. Students will use the Socratic Method of learning as they examine the five elements of literature: plot, conflict, setting, character and theme. Graphic organizers, book lists, discussion questions, excerpts and other materials are included in the workbook.

The included 4-DVD set contains the instructional seminars that show students how to apply elements described in the text to literature. Concepts covered include preparing for literary analysis, plot & conflict, setting, character, theme and practice/scope & sequence. Elementary-high school.

This kit includes:

97-page workbook, softcover, spiral-bound.

4 DVDs in plastic case.

This is one of the most valuable resources I have found for our Home school. Teaching clearly and enthusiastically, Mr. Andrews lays out the Socratic method for you and your children, so you and they can truly enjoy the depth of the Classics! A MUST BUY, in my opinion! Don't forget to purchase Andrew Pudewa's Writing Intensive, which is the perfect compliment to it.
