Osmosis Mom Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Besides Analytical Grammar, what are the secular users using for the rest of the high school years? I am looking for other options than Stewart English. Or alternately, use AG for 11/12, but then what for 9/10? Reverse SWB's suggestion and use Stewart first? Stewart is rated as being for 7-12 graders, thus my quanandrum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keptwoman Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 We are using AG but stretching it out over 3 years and making full use of the R&R exercises. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kathy in MD Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 AG also has high school reinforcement books, so you could do AG in grades 9-10 and then two reinforcement books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pamela H in Texas Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Someone mentioned Thinking Through Grammar and at first, I didn't think it was enough. But after using the first book, I see how easy to implement and my son has been successful with it. My daughter used Jensen's Grammar.

LanaTron Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I know it is supposed to be for middle schoolers, but it is quite rigorous, IMO. My 7th grader is using Hake 7 and learning things I know I didn't learn until 11th or 12th grade. I've had to slow things way down for him, and spread one lesson out over three days. Here's a thread about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrison_B Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I've started to use Warriner's Grammar and Composition. It is an old fashion secular grammar book and I love it. The set-up is something like the R&S books and some of the exercises are dated; however, I like the format. The book series are set up in courses - 1st course (7th grade), 2nd course (8th grade), and so on. The Complete course is 12th grade and the combination of all the courses. You can find the used books on Amazon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
