    Advanced Language Lessons

     

    This edition of Advanced Language Lessons is an edited republished edition of Aldine Third Language Book,  which was originally published in 1917.


    Emma Serl never wrote an advanced book to follow her Primary and Intermediate Language Lessons. Seeing a need for such a book, Lost Classics Book Company asked Mary Jane Newcomer, author of the Teacher’s Guides for both Primary Language Lessons and Intermediate Language Lessons, for her recommendation for an advanced lesson book.

     

    Mary Jane is a qualified teacher with experience in homeschooling, and is thoroughly knowledgable of the content of Serl’s books. She chose this book as an appropriate follow up for advanced students, being from about the same period and with content well-suited to advance the lessons in the previous Language Lessons books. The text has been updated and edited only where necessary. This book is intended for students aged 13 to 16 and will be especially helpful for those who have completed Emma Serl’s Intermediate Language Lessons.

About Book Three
The Elson Readers, Book Three offers children longer, more complex, and complete stories and poems than Primer, Book One, and Book Two had offered. The text, while eminently readable, is now more normally proportioned and spaced. Still drawing on classics of children’s literature from sources as varied as Aesop, the Grimm brothers, Hans Christian Andersen, American Indian stories, Greek legends, Robert Louis Stevenson, Edward Lear, and adaptations of the Biblical stories of Joseph and David; this volume is filled with literary treasures with which a child should be made familiar on their road to cultural literacy.
While charmingly illustrated, there are fewer pictures, and the emphasis is on the literature now that the child has less need for visual clues to understand the text.
The “Word List” has really become a glossary and contains pronunciation guides to the words, which have been updated to current pronunciation notation.
