Grammar scholars will focus on covering all of the memory work in the Tour Guide. Dialectic scholars will cover the Tour Guide in a shorter amount of time per day and some subjects in greater depth (e.g., history, science, religion). Topics that are most likely mastered by the dialectic scholars already (e.g., parts of speech, skip counting) will not need to be covered during the co-op. Dialectic scholars will spend time discussing books and excerpts from important literary works from the time period that we are studying in the Tour Guide’s history timeline for that quarter.
