FlockOfSillies Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Not liking a lot of grammar choices for sixth grade. So many people either love or hate the ones I'm exploring. I want a program with diagramming, if possible. And R&S is not an option. My dad gave me a 1951 copy of a Warriner's high school grammar book. Would the new Warriner's 7th grade book be doable for us? I'm looking at GWG and JAG, too, but each of those has/lacks features that give me pause. I just saw Sheldon's Advanced Grammar at Google Books -- haven't looked to see if it has diagramming, but I'm thinking I could "workbook-ize" it to make it easier to use. (All hail the plain text function at Google Books!) But that would take a long time to do, and given my graphic design background, I'd want it to be too pretty. Help!

mktkcb Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 If R&S isn't an option, does that mean CLE isn't an option either? That's a great program that uses diagramming. If you are strictly looking secular, then I'd look at Hake, or maybe Voyages in English. Both use lots of diagramming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlockOfSillies Posted June 17, 2009 Author Share Posted June 17, 2009 R&S was a total flame-out for us in 3rd grade. We actually fell behind in grammar because of it (which is why we're only finishing FLL4 in 5th). I won't go back. I thought I'd read here that Hake didn't include diagramming. Hmmm. I'll look again. Thanks for the list. I'm still wondering about Warriner's, if anyone who's used it can chime in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
