Carin' For Seven Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 The intro says 9 / 4th grade. I was wondering if anyone has used this with a younger child? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellie Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Never. I thought Simply Grammar was simply awful. Archaic language, bad examples, strange illustrations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AudreyTN Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 I would like to know as well. I have it and was thinking of using it to supplement LLATL. I was going to try it when she starts 3rd, she will be newly 8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carin' For Seven Posted March 11, 2008 Author Share Posted March 11, 2008 Never. I thought Simply Grammar was simply awful. Archaic language, bad examples, strange illustrations. I have always used FLL but thought Simply Grammar would be a nice change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trivium Academy Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Some old-fashioned teaching models are timeless. In this revised and expanded edition of First Grammar Lessons by Charlotte Mason, you'll discover one of them---the simple method of narration that focuses on conversation as a natural means of teaching grammar to your fourth to eighth graders. (From ChristianBook.com) I checked it out from the library and I prefer HillsideEducation.com 's updated products more but I wouldn't go so far as to critique it as harshly as Ellie did.

OneRoomHomeSchool Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 I've used it with 2 children a few years back...I wouldn't use it before age 9 or 10. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunflowerlady Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 I have it and am considering using it for my dd who will be in fourth grade and nine years old. Rita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
