A Look Inside the Life of Fred Language Arts

Life of Fred is a fictional narrative that introduces students to essential concepts in a fun and easy way. Kids really love reading the Fred books. The Language Arts Series covers concepts on spelling, grammar, punctuation and more.

This series is best suited for middle school and high school students. The books can be re-read once every year to ensure total comprehension of all the concepts covered. Lessons include the seven parts of speech, punctuation, spelling, similes, silent letters, and so much more.  

Why these books WORK:

• Language Arts concepts are weaved throughout a fictional narrative about Fred, the 5-year-old math prodigy. The books read like storybooks, but have meaningful lessons embedded within the stories.
• Every chapter is a daily lesson that only takes about 20 to 30 minutes to read and complete.
• At the end of every chapter, there is an opportunity for students to practice the concepts covered during Fred’s adventure.
• The Language Arts Series can be re-read once a year to keep concepts fresh in students’ minds.
• Kids want to actually read these books - they are so fun!
