Building on the foundation begun in Grammar 2, students continue developing their writing craft. Lessons draw from their studies in science and history as well as Andrew Pudewa’s Teaching Structure & Style, helping them see writing as a way to connect ideas across disciplines. Students progress from simple sentences to well-structured paragraphs, practicing stylistic techniques that strengthen both clarity and imagination. Each written piece becomes an act of reflection and expression—blending structure with creativity and nurturing confidence as they learn to write with thoughtfulness and grace.

History

Students journey through the ancient world using Veritas Press History Cards: New Testament, Greece & Rome, discovering the pivotal moment in history when Christ entered the world. Building on their previous study of Mesopotamia and Egypt, they now explore how Greek and Roman culture shaped the historical setting of the New Testament. Classroom projects, dress-up days, a Grecian feast, and an Olympic-themed field day make these lessons vivid and memorable, while at-home readings deepen understanding. Students learn that history is not merely a record of people and places, but a living story threaded with God’s faithfulness—guiding nations toward redemption. 

Texts & Resources: Veritas Press History Cards: New Testament, Greece & Rome; Who was Alexander the Great; Usborne Illustrated History: The Greeks; Usborne's Illustrated History: The Romans; and A Child’s History of the World.

Students explore the generosity of God’s creation through the study of plants—discovering how each leaf, seed, and flower sustains life and speaks of His provision. Using Apologia’s Exploring Creation with Botany, they observe and record the marvels of growth, structure, and design. Lessons unfold through nature journaling, seed dissections, and hands-on projects that nurture both curiosity and care. As they make paper, examine fruits and flowers, and gather specimens for study, students learn to see the created world as a living testimony of God’s design—His intricate wisdom written into even the smallest leaf. Each discovery becomes a quiet act of praise.
