To keep shipping costs as low as possible, we recommend placing smaller print book orders whenever practical. Orders that exceed our print partner's U.S. shipping weight limit may be fulfilled from a U.K. facility, resulting in significantly higher shipping charges. If you're purchasing several print books, placing two or more smaller orders will often reduce your shipping costs.

The Cornerstone Academics Vanguard Literature Grade 12 Poetry Companion Student Workbook gives students a full year of poetry study in the culminating year of the classical literature program.
Thirty-six poems — one for each week of the school year — complete the arc of the Vanguard Literature poetry curriculum. At the Grade 12 level, the poems are about what work leaves behind when the worker is gone: hands shaped by decades of carrying that retain the record in their knuckles; a maker whose finished table already belongs more to the room it will enter than to the hands that brought it there; skill that passed out of the craftsman’s possession so gradually that no one can say exactly when possession ceased. These are poems for readers who have been attending to language for years and can now hear what the silence in a poem carries.
Full-year curriculum (36 weeks) includes:
One poem per week
Second Read prompts
Close Reading questions
Meaning & Intent discussions
Copywork
Memory work
End-of-week reflection questions
Written for Grade 12. Suitable for Grades 11–12 with guidance. This product ships to you as a print-on-demand book and includes an instant digital download.
