Which Harvey's Grammar for CW Homer/ 14yod?

[Gini]

I've never used Homer, but will this coming fall. I'll be using this with my 14 yod. Do I use the Harvey's Elementary or the Harvey's revised? I'd really appreciate some "expert" opinions from you ladies.

Thanks so much.

I'm using Homer A this year. The core book suggests that you use Harvey's Elementary Grammar Part I or an equivalent grammar text. Have you seen the workbook for older students? (http://www.lulu.com/content/389498) This might work better for your daughter since the Homer books are designed for 5th grade. (http://home.att.net/~mikejaqua/whichbookstobuy.html)

 

HTH!

I forgot to mention that I don't know if Harvey's Elementary Grammar is suggested for the older student workbook. You can probably ask on the forums though: http://lene.proboards15.com/

I've been thinking. Just because she's "Older", doesn't mean she wouldn't benefit from the Elementary instead of the Revised. I think I'll just go with that one since it's also recommended.

 

Thanks so much. You've been a big help.

and just because it says "Elementary" doesn't mean it's simplistic!! It's a meaty little text.

 

Actually, either Elementary or Revised would suit your purposes. But Elementary is what is scheduled for you in Homer, so it's likely a better fit from an ease of scheduling perspective.
