Description

Sir Walter Scott’s Lady of the Lake is a narrative poem that brings to life the color and adventure of highland Scotland while elevating students to a love of language, of history, of great ideals and noble deeds. Those who persevere in reading aloud this magnificent work are soon caught up in a story that incomparably bids “a warrior smile” and “teach(es) a maid to weep,” in Scott’s words—“a nobler strain.” Tenth grade in The Noah Plan® curriculum but also appropriate for family reading aloud.Our mission—producing Christian character and leadership in our children—calls for high goals of thinking and communication, beyond mere literacy. The best ally a teacher or parent has in cultivating language mastery is the great literature.
