learning using the Trivium: 1. The Grammar Stage (Grades K-4) which
focuses on presenting information, the broad acquisition of facts

Grammar Stage, making connections and learning to evaluate
evidence. 3. The Rhetoric Stage (Grades 9-12) which focuses on
synthesizing and learning to express increasingly complex insights
with eloquence and precision.
