Placement Process One critical factor for restful learning is the proper placement of students. If you are unsure which level is the best fit for your student, reach out to the instructor you are considering. Once registered, anticipate contact regarding placement evaluations from instructors by May 15th and throughout the summer. Students must be enrolled to enter the placement process. Early placement exams may allow time for tutoring or additional review based on the outcomes. See more about placement evaluations in our Student-Parent Handbook.

Inside the Well Ordered Language Program: A Scholé Academy Info Session

Well-Ordered Language Level 4 is the fourth part in a four-level series that presents grammar in a clear, orderly way, while simultaneously seeking to cultivate a child’s wonder of language with instruction in the context of narrative language, attractive illustrations, with samples taken from classic children’s literature and poetry. The carefully crafted pedagogy of this series helps students learn the mechanics of grammar while they also see the power of language unfolding before them as they learn to gather and arrange words to express their thoughts clearly and accurately.

In this class, students will not merely be able to identify the parts of a sentence, but they will also understand how words behave in a sentence. As students see the components of language (the parts of speech) unfold before them throughout the Well-Ordered Language series, they will be able to apply their knowledge, gathering and arranging words to express their thoughts clearly and accurately.

In the first semester of the class, students will learn about sentence diagramming, principal elements, adverbs & adjectives, predicate verbs, predicate nominatives & predicate adjectives, prepositional phrases, personal pronouns, Indirect objects, interrogative pronouns & interrogative adverbs, relative clauses with relative pronouns & relative adverbs, and appositives. In the second semester students will learn about reflexive and intensive pronouns, adverbial clauses and phrases, indefinite pronouns, participial phrases, gerund phrases, infinitive phrases, verbal phrase review, noun clauses, and sentence diagramming.
