Guide Review - Conversation with Character

Conversation with Character is a full-year language arts curriculum for ages 9 to 15 for training your children in the art of conversation. The book supplies organized, bite-sized concepts with fun activities for each lesson. It is designed to introduce one lesson per week and to practice the skills learned throughout the week. The goal of the book is to help your child weed out bad habits that hinder loving communication and cultivate good habits. It is important to train your children to choose their words wisely and use them properly.

The lessons are laid out in an easy-to-use manner. There are games provided for reinforcing the skills learned and suggestions for practicing the lessons throughout the day. Each lesson includes a Bible verse for memorization and to reinforce the lesson. Fun activities are included in each lesson making the lesson come to life and leave a lasting impression.

Conversation with Character builds confidence for any conversational setting. It will help provide your children with the skills needed for conversations from start to finish. This is the only curriculum I've seen that teaches the art of conversation in such a way that will truly have an impact and change the course of conversation.
