stormy weather Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 So, I've been going through PLL this year with my Daughter. I like the style and variation in the lessons. It's going well and she is starting to write her own chapter books. A great opportunity for spelling, grammar and penmanship work (she's learning without it being school). But, I feel like we need something more specific on the rules of grammar and punctuation. PLL seems vague on rules to me. I was public schooled and taught myself grammar from reading so I can see what's wrong when I'm reading her work but can't always state a rule for her. Any suggestions? Even if it were just a book for me to use as a reference, to correct her work and to explain to her why this or that must be done in a certain way.

Aludlam Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 We just started Growing with Grammar this past week. So far my dd8 is LOVING it. It reminds me of ETC, without the pics ... if that makes any sense. Angela Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poke Salad Annie Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 We are supplementing Sheldon's PLL, which is similar to Serl's with the free KISS grammar program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormy weather Posted January 31, 2010 Author Share Posted January 31, 2010 (edited) Sorry, I'm terribly thick about the acronyms. I never can seem to decide what they stand for :confused: Could you please give me the full names of the curiculms you're talking about?:001_unsure: I just found another post with a link to Acronyms for curriculum, so never mind the above.

Marsha Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 You could just supplement with Grammar Tales by Scholastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stormy weather Posted February 10, 2010 Author Share Posted February 10, 2010 Thanks for the suggestions, still undecided. For now I'm just checking books out from the library on the different parts of speech. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
