GRAMMAR
natural collection
The Grammar Stage is typically a season of natural collection. There’s an innate desire to bring together what children have learned. At the Classical School, the Grammar Stage is generally equivalent to grades 3 and 4. This includes history, literature, English grammar, writing, introduction to Latin, and math enrichment. These all help build and grow young minds and prepare them for a future of learning.
