Using the same auditory, frequency, and mastery approach as The Phonetic Zoo, these nine different sets of MP3 spelling and vocabulary lessons by Andrew Pudewa, Dr. James B. Webster, and Maria Gerber will help prepare your student for a wide range of studies. This program is intended for self-directed study, with students independently learning and testing their knowledge. The student begins by listening to the MP3s, which gives him a spelling test. The words are presented and used in a sentence. After the student spells all the words, the correct spelling is given on the MP3 along with the definition of the word. The student takes the same test everyday until he obtains 100% twice in a row before moving onto the next test. Thus, the student can practice spelling and hearing the definition of the words until he achieves mastery. Each module has 4 lessons with 24 words per lesson. This course comes on two CD-ROMs containing all nine modules and a PDF booklet containing full instructions and the list of words and definitions. This complete course includes all nine modules of the Advanced Spelling and Vocabulary course, including: Art & Architecture, Bible & Theology, Business & Economics, Government & Law, Greek & Latin Word Roots, Health & Science, Literature, Music, SAT/ACT.

Omnibus is the classical Christian educational answer to history, theology, and literature. Omnibus is a Latin term meaning ``all encompassing.`` Completing Omnibus I will provide the student a full credit in Ancient World History I, Doctrine and Theology I, and Ancient Literature I. Combining these disciplines will have students grow in their appreciation of the unity of all knowledge, and all the material is taught through a biblical worldview. The student text leads the student through the study of the great works from the dawn of time to the fall of Rome, teaching with the emphasis on ideas, not simply information. The Teacher CD-ROM duplicates the student text and inserts answers to all questions, provides grading tools, and much more. This daily approach includes lesson plans and will make teaching and interacting with the greatest works of Western Civilization both enjoyable and profitable. Students will also apply and further develop their skills in composition, logic and aesthetics. Students completing all six years of Omnibus will have carefully studied every book of the Bible, too. The student text assigns the readings in the primary and secondary books for each semester. We have gathered these books into discounted kits. The primary reading covers books that the student will interact with most. Papers, tests, field trips, etc. will generally be more geared to the primary books. Secondary reading is not necessarily less important, but it is given less emphasis. Recommended for 7th Grade. From Veritas Press. Learn More
