Elemental history is listed for younger kids than yours, but I thought it was most SOTW-like. You might want to check it out.

My son loved this one: http://www.abcya.com/parts_of_speech_quest.htm
LearnwithESA.com has grammar included in their free reading program. It is only listed under 3rd grade, but it is a multi-grade program.
I put this set of links together for my son a few years back.

I found it a fun place to browse and get motivated. I tended to buy educational games that Lakeshore produced themselves so there really was no comparison shopping. Last time I was there - which was awhile ago - they had a big screen with their computer games available to play. I bought a few of those for pepping school up. My son has aged out of all this fun stuff now.

I like the spelling and grammar lessons from Essential Skills Advantage. They have free access for at least some of the subjects so you can check it out.

Galore Park English? One slim book per year with the work done on paper. There are samples at their site.
-
Not exactly what you are looking for, but there is an audio devotional available everyday from Keys for Kids. They also have a spin off website called itoadu.com. I haven't checked it out closely.

It's available free on Google books. There's a Willie's Grammar if one happens to have boys instead of girls as well. :lol:

I liked Adventures in America by the Elemental Science people.

Winter Promise uses MOH 2 in Quest for the Middle Ages. I haven't used it, but it might be worth a look.

I've read the book. My daughter read it in 12th grade, I believe. I wouldn't have tried it with any of my children at 13. I would save it for late high school. I haven't seen the workbook.

Go through all your eBooks and organize them into subject folders on a thumb drive.
Learn how to use your pdf software to remove and add pages to a pdf. Learn how to print in booklet form.
Now that you have learned to make booklets, go through all your nicely organized eBooks and pluck the best pages from each of them and create little books that you will actually use. Create pretty cover pages for them.
This is what I do! How funny, Hunter. Since I'm also down to my youngest, I try decide which books I will save for possible grandchildren or tutoring someday.

Scholaric will let you do that. I highly recommend it.
-
I got it through learning.com. Currently it is listed at $2 a year. Obviously, when I bought it there was no minimum number of student seats. I don't think that has changed.

Perhaps Everyday Number Stories by Emma Serl.
-
There's a Basher Geology - or something like that. I also just had Painless Earth Science from the library. I don't know if these are what you are looking for. I also have an older book called Earth: The Ever-Changing Planet by Donald Silver and Patricia Winn. That team did the One Small Square book that were so popular for awhile. It's a solid middle school level and beautifully illustrated. Another option might be The Practical Geologist, which I have in my Amazon cart. (Can you tell my son loves earth studies?)

Self driving car - with bathroom and mini fridge and recliners for long trips
Food replicator - anything anyone wants, hot and ready
Teaching textbooks grammar and writing - fully automated teaching and grading of writing

Ooh, thank you. Off to read...

I am using Progressive Comp and loving it. We have also used parts of First Book of English. But what is this derivatives book of which you speak???

I love Creative Teaching Press. This is probably not what you are looking for, but my son loved CTP Language Booster at that age. http://www.creativeteaching.com/products/language-boosters-gr-2-ebook
The publisher of ETC also has Primary Phonics. I wish I had found it earlier for my son. You would need the readers as well.

Have you also considered Co-Ops and Tutorials? In addition you can piece together an online curriculum.
Time4Learning.com
With
Time4Writing.com (has live teachers)
Currclick.com (for some courses that have live teachers)
TeachingTextbooks.com for math
*Hire a tutor 1/2 times a week for core courses (Math/English)
The homeschool buyer's co-op has choices as well. Plato Science comes to mind. Plato has LA as well. Uzinga or Adaptive Science could work.
GSWL then what?
in K-8 Curriculum Board

Just wanted to add that Visual Latin is offered through HomeSchoolBuyersCo-op.com which brings the price down somewhat. We haven't moved on from GSWL yet, so I'm no help with that. ;-)
