They would learn their grammar and you could teach your other kids while however many kids you have doing this were doing it. It is worth the money. My parents did not tell me to say this.”—Parker, at age 11 #515-041 $50.00 Poor Elmo Tardy is always getting lost. But one fine day, while on his way to see the optometrist, Mr. Tardy providentially stumbles into the over-stuffed office of Legends & Leagues, Ltd. There he meets the lanky Mr. Meridian Longitude and the stout Mr. Azimuth Latitude—two cheery fellows who teach Mr. Tardy about the concepts of maps, points of the compass, geographic formations and more. Students will laugh and learn as Tardy is taught all he needs to know to get from Here to There. A great, complete introduction to geography.

CD and Songbook #050-025 $22.95 Songbook Only #050-030 $6.95 The children also learn jingles to memorize the parts of speech, enabling and encouraging them to chant till they start dreaming grammar lessons. This program is easy to use and you will not believe what your children (and often the parents) will learn! Author Brenda Shurley says, “The Shurley Method uses repetition, fun, student/teacher interaction, and a concrete set of questions about each word in a sentence to teach students how all the parts of a sentence fit together. It is important to study how all the parts of a sentence fit together because students need to understand sentence structure in order to speak and write successfully.” For best results and ease to the teacher we recommend purchasing the Kit (which includes the teacher’s manual, one student workbook, and instructional CD) and the practice booklet. Consider the practice set (practice booklet and practice CD) if you wish to have the student work independently. Skill in writing takes practice. These reproducible workbooks are perfect complements to phonetic instruction and give an outstanding precursor to more detailed instruction in later years.
