Description
This is the final teaching resource for Language in Level 1. There’s a reason humans evolved to tell and enjoy stories. Putting information and language into a wider, practical context—one that creates mysteries or stirs up emotion—helps learn that information much faster.
Of course, with only a seed of language comprehension present in kids at this age, the stories are incredibly simple. Once they’ve seen a few good fairy tales, however, they’ll be hungry for more. The best you can hope for, after using this resource, is a child who soon devours any books they see!
As the saying goes: “Parents just need to read, read, read until their little ones are ready to read, read, read”
Our curriculum, of course, already involves stories every single step of the way. Almost every resource, about any topic, has a bundle of stories in the Explorers faction. In fact, those were usually the very first products to be made! It all starts there.
Still, we wanted to add a standalone “teaching resource” about stories here that mostly explores story structure and comprehension. Enjoying a good story and actually 100% understanding what happened are different things. This resource is about the second part; try any of our fairy tales for the first part.

Subject: Language
The curriculum is split into six main subjects that align with your typical school subjects.

But that's just one way to teach and explore its topic(s)!
You can always move to a different Faction to find a more effective way to teach the same topic.

For example,
Charm: Lesson Material
This product is part of the Lesson Material charm.
Visit its main page to learn more about what that means. Below is a summary:
Lesson Material refers to anything you can directly use in a classroom or when homeschooling. They are a guide for Guardians so they know what to do/teach, as well as the textbook or initial explanation of a skill/topic for Apprentices.
This charm represents the base product of our curriculum and the type of resource you’d use in a typical school setting.
Spell: My First Stories
This resource is part of the My First Stories topic (or "spell").
Simple stories are a great way to teach vocabulary to pre-readers. You can read stories to Apprentices, but most people will already invent their own stories from a young age. An added benefit is the fact that stories are fun and exciting, can include lots of other details about the world, and teach about cause and effect.
