ACSI / Abeka Books / Plato Learning, Inc.
The language program provides students the opportunity
to develop their skills in listening, speaking, reading,
writing, grammar and spelling. As students interact
with each other, they are listening and responding appropriately.
Ideas are expressed in thoughtful, organized manners
of speaking and written work. Written communication
allows students to express their thoughts and ideas
in a variety of ways, for a variety of purposes. The
correct use of standard English in written pieces is
modeled, practiced and mastered.
