  • A one-semester course for grades 6 and up

    This curriculum is designed for teachers and students to actively engage with each other and with the grammatical concepts in each lesson, using language skills—reading, writing, speaking, and listening—along with physical movement, songs, and chants. Through Well-Ordered Language’s unique, creative, and orderly method of analyzing the grammatical functions of the parts of speech, students will find the mastery of grammar achievable, meaningful, and delightful.

    Note: Level 4 is the final level in the WOL series.

    Full program includes:

    • Well-Ordered Language Level 4A (consumable student edition) Students will not merely be able to identify the parts of a sentence, but also understand how words behave in a sentence. As students see the components of language (the parts of speech) unfold before them throughout the Well-Ordered Language series, they will be able to apply their knowledge, gathering and arranging words to express their thoughts clearly and accurately. In Well-Ordered Language Level 4A (WOL 4A), students will learn about:
      • Sentence diagramming (visualizing grammatical relationships within sentences)
      • Principal elements, adverbs & adjectives
      • Predicate verbs, predicate nominatives & predicate adjectives
      • Prepositional phrases
      • Personal pronouns
      • Indirect objects
      • Interrogative pronouns & interrogative adverbs
      • Relative clauses with relative pronouns & relative adverbs
      • Appositives
    • Well-Ordered Language Level 4A Teacher's Edition The teacher's edition includes the entire student text and also features:
      • Pedagogical guidance and tips
      • Extensive explanation of and guidance in Well-Ordered Language’s unique analytic approach to grammar
      • Explanation of and guidance in diagramming sentences
      • Suggested activities and games for review
      • Answers for all student exercises
      • Suggested schedules for teaching Well-Ordered Language Level 4A
    • Well-Ordered Language Level 4A Extra Practice & Assessments PDF This 98-page supplemental resource, referred to throughout the book as “downloadable PDF” or “PDF,” is for those who want more! It includes for each chapter a quiz that aids in assessing students’ understanding of what they have learned in the chapter and an Extend the Practice exercise in which students compose their own sentences, implementing the grammatical concept being taught in the chapter. It also includes Bibliography: Seek the Sources, Glossary of Terms, Song Lyrics, Diagramming Overview, and About the Title. The content of the PDF is ideal for use as additional classroom lessons or for homework when needed.
      The PDF license that comes with this purchase is for 1–3 students and is copyrighted material. Special co-op and school licensing options for 4 or more students are available for purchase. Please call us at 866-730-0711 or email us at orders(at)classicalsubjects.com to upgrade your license.

    Note: The three songs for Level 4 are included with the purchase of the Well-Ordered Language Level 3 Program or Well-Ordered Language Level 3 & 4 Songs & Chants. These lively tunes help students learn grammar terms in an enjoyable and memorable way. Key terms and definitions introduced in previous books will be reviewed in each level. We also recommend purchasing the Level 1 and Level 2 songs to accompany the Level 3 and Level 4 lessons.

    “This year we used Well-Ordered Language (WOL) for our 3rd- and 4th-grade classes, and next year we will add it to our 5th-grade curriculum. As an administrator, I had searched high and low for a curriculum that truly fit our mission as a classical Christian school, and I had begun to think that in order to truly serve our students well I would have to begin working on creating a curriculum from scratch. The WOL program has been a wonderful surprise and a great gift to our academy. For students, WOL provides plenty of explanation, practice, and memorization in a context full of beauty, whimsy, and worthwhile language. We love the fact that every example comes from great poetry or stories that echo what we are already studying. For teachers, WOL gives excellent guidance, classroom wisdom, and tools for assessment and enrichment. I was delighted to hear that CAP has added teacher training videos to their site, and I can't wait to share them with my team. Thank you!” —Julie Dreher, Grammar School Head and 4th-grade teacher, Sequitur Classical Academy, Baton Rouge, LA

    “Another reason I stopped by your booth was to see the new grammar curriculum—it’s enchanting! (I never thought I would use ‘grammar curriculum’ and ‘enchanting’ in the same sentence!!!) Just like the new Writing & Rhetoric program. Thank you for consistently producing materials that overflow with goodness, truth, and beauty!” —Julie E., homeschool mom
