The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis is the rare series of books that can be read multiple times - new riches are found at different stages of life.

Come join me in The Magician's Nephew, the book that lays the groundwork for all of Narnia. It is an exciting tale of temptation, betrayal, creation, and forgiveness.

Doc H loves to teach this beautiful variation on the Biblical story of creation. Reading this novel makes the other Narnia stories much richer; C. S. Lewis is a master world- builder!

Through an intentional spiral curriculum, students will continue to develop their vocabulary, deepen their reading comprehension, sharpen their writing skills, and strengthen their Biblical knowledge. They will climb a spiral staircase of critical thinking and mastery of the essentials of 6th grade language arts.
