If you are using a different writing, vocabulary, nonfiction, and grammar program but need a secular literature component that aligns with your family's values, our bundle is the perfect addition.\r\n\r\nSeamless Integration with Your Existing Curriculum: At Hearth & Story, we understand that every homeschooling journey is unique. Our Level 7-8 Literature Bundle is designed as the perfect companion for families who are content with their current writing, vocabulary, nonfiction, and grammar programs but are seeking a secular alternative specifically for literature.\r\n\r\nAge Recommendation: Hearth & Story Level 7-8 is designed for advanced 7th graders planning to take high school-level English I in 8th grade, as well as 8th graders or older students seeking to strengthen their upper middle school English Language Arts skills.\r\n\r\nNovel Theme: The Power We Hold<\/strong>\r\n\r\nThe Power We Hold invites seventh and eighth grade students to explore the many forms of power that shape our world, from personal abilities to social influence and the power of storytelling itself. Through this series, students will consider the complex dynamics of power: how it is gained, challenged, and wielded for both good and ill.\r\n\r\nEach story in this series follows characters navigating power in unique ways\u2014whether by discovering unexpected abilities and using them to protect others, grappling with the tension between leadership and oppression, or recognizing the profound influence of language and storytelling. The thematic core encourages students to examine how power can be used to unite or divide, to inspire or control, and how it evolves in different contexts and over time.\r\n\r\nThe Power We Hold\u00a0challenges students to reflect on the forces that shape their own lives and communities, encouraging them to consider how they can harness their own unique strengths, voices, and influence to bring about meaningful change.\r\n\r\nStep Up Your Poetry Game:<\/strong>\u00a0This course builds on earlier levels by introducing students to more advanced poetry reading, analysis of poetry forms, and even their own poetry writing exercises.\r\n\r\nThis course includes a mini anthology of 28 carefully selected poems, each chosen to challenge and inspire students while remaining accessible and engaging. As they read, write, and analyze, students will sharpen their understanding of poetry while also exploring figurative language and poetic structure in greater depth. In addition to guided lessons, this course includes a few poetry writing activities, encouraging students to experiment with their own poetic voice.\r\n\r\nNote: This course is designed to be used with the same Hearth & Story Literary Term Flashcard set used in the 5th and 6th grade Hearth & Story poetry courses. The printable flashcards are included in this bundle for newcomers to Hearth & Story. If you already have a set, you will not need to print them again.\r\n\r\nExplore the Wit and Wisdom of Oscar Wilde:<\/strong>\u00a0Our Level 7-8 short story series features three beloved tales by Oscar Wilde\u2014\u201cThe Model Millionaire,\u201d \u201cThe Devoted Friend,\u201d and \u201cThe Remarkable Rocket.\u201d These units include the full text of each story, along with clever questions, creative writing prompts, and fun activities that bring Wilde's humor and insights to life. Students are encouraged to make connections, unravel Wilde\u2019s sharp wit, and reflect on the timeless lessons woven into his stories. Crafted to inspire curiosity and critical thinking, this unit turns classic literature into a delightful homeschool experience. Step over to the Wilde side and discover why his stories still captivate readers today.\r\n\r\nA Well-Rounded Literature Experience for Upper Middle School:<\/strong>\u00a0Whether you prefer a secular approach or want to ensure your literature selections reflect your family's values, the Hearth & Story Level 7-8 Literature Bundle makes teaching advanced literary analysis engaging and approachable. Enrich your homeschooling journey with thoughtfully chosen books that inspire curiosity, nurture a love of reading, and seamlessly support the language components of your English language arts curriculum.","_et_gb_content_width":"","content-type":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[185,63,183,23,179],"product_tag":[186,178,184,28],"class_list":{"0":"post-21211","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-hearth-story","7":"product_cat-language-arts","8":"product_cat-lindsey-sodano","9":"product_cat-middle-school","10":"product_cat-new-products","11":"product_tag-hearth-story","12":"product_tag-homeschool","13":"product_tag-lindsey-sodano","14":"product_tag-middle-school","16":"first","17":"instock","18":"downloadable","19":"virtual","20":"taxable","21":"purchasable","22":"product-type-simple"},"yoast_head":"\n
