Literature Grades and Book Reports
Central to the St. Thomas Aquinas Academy program is literature and the preparation of the child for a lifetime of appreciating classic literature and great books. In keeping with this purpose, it is recommended that each student complete two book reports per quarter (four per semester) unless directed otherwise by a literature course paired with their historical cycle. Suggested book report formats for each grade level can be found on the Member Support Site. Sign in at www.staahomeschool.com/members, click on "COURSE & DOWNLOADS," and then scroll through the resource list until you come to the "Literature Grades & Book Reports" link.
