Discover the joys of literature in the light of biblical truth with BJU Press' Excursions in Literature. Both color and pen-and-ink illustrations lend artistic flourish to the stories chosen to represent the themes of the units: friends, choices, heroes, discoveries and adventures. Selections represent a wide variety of cultures and time periods, including Louisa May Alcott, Katherine Mansfield, Langston Hughes, O. Henry, Amy Carmichael, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Charles Dickens, traditional folklore and the text of Donnalynn Hess' In Search of Honor. Small textboxes define unfamiliar vocabulary words and provide information about the author; each chapter concludes with Thinking Zone questions designed to test students' interpretive, literal, critical and appreciative responses to the selection. Students are encouraged to develop and apply critical thinking skills as they analyze the literature pieces in light of a Christian worldview.
This kit includes:
Teacher's Guide with CD-ROM, 720 pages, 2 spiral-bound books with reduced student text and correct answers overlaid.
