C.S. Lewis’ delightful Chronicles of Narnia is not just for kids! Homeschooling high schoolers should revisit The Magician’s Nephew in order to study the theological and philosophical concepts he imbedded in the stories.
Teens will join Digory and Polly as they learn about absolute moral law and grace. They will learn to recognize religious and philosophic symbolism, thus becoming better thinkers and do-ers.
As always, 7Sisters’ Literature Study Guides contain NO busywork- just the important takeaways from each book. In The Magician’s Nephew Study Guide, homeschooling teens will gain experience in inferential and critical thinking skills. They will build richness in their knowledge and understanding of their relationship with God. They will gain understanding of the basic philosophical concepts that drive our western culture. AND they will come to understand C.S. Lewis’ life and world.
Our guides are easy to adapt for use at an:
- Average High School
- College Prep
- Honors Level
Homeschoolers who wish to “level up” to an advanced or honors will have the opportunity to develop their own “Narnian-style” subcreation (backstory) as they work through the study guides. (A recommended add-on for fun would be Advanced Guide to High School Writing: Myth-Fantasy Story, which will help your teen construct a story following the format the Lewis employed.)
