Upper Grammar Literature Modules

These 8-week literature workshop modules are offered during the fall, winter, and spring. Literature students complete their work before class, then meet once per week in our live online classrooms at the scheduled times to discuss their work. 

These modules are based on the award-winning Tapestry of Grace homeschool curriculum, but you do not need to own or be studying Tapestry of Grace at home to join one of our mods. 

​NOTE: teachers do NOT provide grades for module courses.
