Essentials just keeps getting better! In Spring 2021, we’ll release our first update to the Essentials Guide in over a decade—the Essentials of the English Language Curriculum, Fifth Edition.
We’ve listened and applied extensive feedback from our tutors and parents to create this new edition, which preserves the familiar structure of Essentials with a more approachable design.
Watch this video to learn all about the updated features and to find answers to your top questions about the Fifth Edition:
Based on thorough input and requests from Classical Conversations communities nationwide, we’ve divided Essentials of the English Language Curriculum, Fifth Edition, into three parts: the Essentials curriculum, the solutions manual, and the student packet.
We’re thrilled about this change, which will make it easier for families to take their curriculum to community and work with their own children at home.
The Essentials Curriculum
The bridge between the Foundations and Challenge curriculums has been strengthened!
The Fifth Edition provides our most robust support yet to Essentials families and communities. We’ve included features such as three-hole punched pages for easy binding, as well as connections to Foundations Memory Work and to Challenge Latin. Not enough? Here’s a few other additions we’re excited about:
The Solutions Manual
A brand new addition to Essentials!
Conveniently printed as a separate piece, the solutions manual contains the same question-confirmation model script for each sentence. This enables you to lead each lesson with confidence.
