 Language of God, Level G |
 Sandra Garant |
 This new worktext on English grammar and composition follows the four-part format of previous levels:
I–Parts of Speech provides review and practice with complex subjects and predicates, appositives, linking verbs, progressive tenses, indefinite pronouns, and so much more quotations, stories, poetry, and non-fiction.
II–Usage offers many examples and exercises using participial phrases, gerunds, sentence diagramming, and subject-verb agreement, often using humorous examples.
III–Mechanics focuses on commas, colons, semi-colons, quotation marks, italics, and other technical aspects of writing.
IV–Composition walks students through diction, researching, pre-writing, drafting, editing, proofreading, and presenting essays, reports, and narratives.
This worktext uses excerpts from Sacred Scripture, Shakespeare, Joyce Kilmer, G. K. Chesterton, St. Francis de Sales, Montague Brown, E.C. Bentley, St. Teresa of Avila, Dom Hubert van Zeller, Jane Austen, E.B. White, J.R.R. Tolkien, and Fr. Gerard Manley Hopkins.

“My five children have been using Catholic Heritage Curricula's Language of God series for a number of years now, and I am so pleased with the fact that, as they are learning about grammar and the proper use of our English language, they are also being educated in the fundamentals of the Church! Interesting facts about our beloved Saints, Church history, and the catechism are woven into the material so that as they learn about the use of quotation marks, for example, they are also gathering information that will strengthen their understanding of our faith. We had tried other Language Arts texts prior to my discovery of CHC and all of its offerings, but none of them ever left me feeling as though we had found exactly what our children needed - until Language of God. We are grateful to CHC and authors Nancy Nicholson, Sandra Garant, and Christine Schintgen for providing us with this excellent series which enables us to continue "Educating for Eternity". God bless you all.”
