Intermediate Language Lessons

by Emma Serl

The purpose of this book is to aid pupils to speak and write the English language correctly. The book is intended especially for use of pupils in the fourth, fifth and sixth grades. It may, however, be adjusted to suit different conditions found in more advanced classes. If "Primary Language Lessons" was used in the last half of the second grade and through the third, the pupil is well prepared to begin "Intermediate Language Lessons," in the fourth grade. Content covers literature studies, letter writing, correct forms of speech and words often misused, vocabulary, outlines, oral and written composition, capitalization and punctuation, civic subjects, such as the school, the court, the state, etc. When an essential fact is taught, the pupil is given practice in using the fact again and again, through dictation, reproduction, and original composition.

Intermediate Language Lessons follows the earlier Primary Language Lessons. Like the first, this guide continues with short, easy lessons on basic grammar, writing, reading and other language arts skills. Unlike many more modern language arts texts, Serl is not afraid to introduce children to the writing of great authors.
