Announcement: January 24, 2024

It has recently been brought to our attention that the book Ancestor Approved has come under some scrutiny in many Indigenous communities due to the legitimacy of some of the contributors. We are looking into this issue now. We have made the decision to pause production of the novel study for Ancestor Approved for the time being. Once we decide what to do and, if relevant, what to replace it with, we will announce that here. In the meantime, we are going to pivot to releasing the novel study for The Sea in Winter by Christine Day next, as we are pretty far along in its development and can likely get it out close to the February 1st date we were aiming for originally with Ancestor Approved. After that, we will jump back into the line-up as written with The Blackbird Girls. The slot currently filled by Ancestor Approved will be moved to the end of the line. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but we feel it is the best plan of action while we decide what to do with the new information we’ve been given.

Frequently Asked Questions:

When will more novel studies be available?

Level 6 novel studies are being released in order as they are completed, beginning in the summer of 2023. Please scroll up to see the novel studies that are currently available. While we do not have a firm ETA in place for these releases, we anticipate the release of a new novel study every 4 – 6 weeks (with the exception of the fifth novel study, which will have a slightly slower roll-out as it will be developed over the holidays and during a move.)

What if I want to eventually purchase the full Level 6 Language Arts curriculum when it becomes available, but will be purchasing individual novel studies in the meantime?

  • Once the full Level 6 Language Arts curriculum (Creativity and Community) is released, you will have 30 days to email me at [email protected] and request a unique discount code.
  • This discount code will deduct the cost of any previous Level 6 novel studies you have purchased up to 72.00 USD outside of sale windows or 50.40 USD during seasonal sales from the price of the full Level 6 Language Arts curriculum.
  • The full Level 6 Language Arts curriculum will be listed at 72.00 USD (regular price.)
  • If you have spent more than 72.00 USD (if purchasing the full curriculum outside of sale window) or 50.40 USD (if purchasing during sale window) on Level 6 novel studies, you will be given store credit for the remaining balance. Refunds will not be available for the remaining balance.
  • So, for example, if you purchase 70.00 USD in Level 6 novel studies and contact me within 30 days after the release of the full Level 6 Language Arts curriculum, and you plan to use the code outside of a sale window, you will be provided with a discount code to take 70.00 USD off the price of the full LA curriculum. Or, if you plan to use the code during a sale window, your code will take 50.40 USD off the price of the full LA curriculum and you will be given 19.60 USD in store credit.
  • Your unique code will only be live for a limited time, and will either work during a sale window or outside of a sale window, depending on which option you specify in your emailed request.
  • Sale windows are 3/15 – 4/30, 8/1 – 9/15, and 11/15 – 12/31 every year.

What about art?

We do plan to develop art for Level 6, and the format will be very similar to the format of art for Levels 4 and 5. However, we are focusing on language arts first and won’t begin developing art until it is released.
