Learning Language Arts Through Literature (LLATL) - Overview
Learning Language Arts Through Literature, or LLATL, is a comprehensive ELA curriculum for grades one through twelve. We are looking at grades 3 to 8. I’m Sara, a curriculum consultant with Rainbow Resource Center. Let’s explore the components, literature, and what a week of lessons might look like in YOUR homeschool! The program is Christian, but on the neutral side with only select passages having religious content. Regular dictation and a focus on literature gives it a Charlotte Mason approach. Parent involvement is medium since there are elements a student can complete on their own. It would appeal to a visual learner, and there are required resources which are the four novels you need to gather. Each level is identified by a color, with the grade number discreetly on the back, making it a good option for remediation. And it is an affordable option for families. The integrated approach assigns meaning to the lessons.
