Thank you! I'll look into level 2 since he might still need more help writing passages. I mean, he can do it, but it's like pulling teeth and doesn't have a lot of confidence in himself when coming up with answers.

Hi All,
I'm a first-time homeschooling mom. I have a rising 4th grader who struggles a lot in the writing department. I saw the author's YT video talking about WWE and love the idea behind this program and how it was designed to help kids who can read but can't necessarily put down their thoughts on paper as easily or answer comprehension questions. My issue is, he should technically be in book 4 but because he struggles so much should I just put him in level 1? Since it's designed for younger students, and has shorter work, maybe he can do a couple of lessons in a day and try to breeze through it to reach his level faster. Or, will he be fine starting in a level 3? Would he miss any foundations that are covered in book 1 and 2?
Also, I was looking into FLL but I'm confused...is this book only grammar? Is it taught simultaneously with WWE? Is this a book that need to be taught from book 1 so he won't miss any important grammar lessons? I know his school taught him grammar but I'm not confident in how well it was taught or how much information he was actually retaining.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for that alternative, I'll look into that as well. I was also looking into Grammar Galaxy. My son seems to get bored easily and this book looks fun while still teaching grammar. Has anyone had any experiences with this curriculum?
