Love2Smile Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 I'd like to know more about MC, Why are some books not available? It goes from book 6+ to 8+ etc..and looks like it skips books, yet shows all of them (not for sale) on the website. I'd like to know more about MC and hear from those who have used it. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3byzaz Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 They are working on getting the other books out as fast as they can. I think the 7 ones will be released this year, but they have had lots of illness in the family. I haven't used for high school, but have quite the writer on my hands...he has used both 6+ books and now I'm using the 5 II and just doing the extension version. I will get the 8+ for him for the fall. Plus, we are going to try the IEW Medieval Theme based one. MC is an excellent program in my opinion. Very much like IEW, very step-by-step, reasonably priced and easy to implement. Donna, the author, has been very helpful when I have emailed her to ask question - mostly about placement questions.

Love2Smile Posted March 12, 2010 Author Share Posted March 12, 2010 if you purchase CQLA is MC included in that program? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4wildberrys Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 All of the MC levels with the exception of the 12th Research Report one are the exact same writing assignments in CQLA----so you don't need to use both. I asked the same question at their website and this is what they told me. There might be another high school level that is different from what's in the CQLA---but right now all the MC levels are right out of it. So---in a nutshell---I was told that if your child, especially a high school student, needs grammar, dictation, spelling etc. use the CQLA. If they are fine on grammar, just get MC and then add a literature program to round it out. My thoughts are that you could just add the Easy Grammar Ultimate to keep grammar fresh and do the MC and Literature for a well rounded but not ALL DAY English program.

atozmom Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Here is another thread on MC & Character Quality Language Arts that was on the K-8 board. If you scroll down to the 15th post you'll see information about placement for all of the MC levels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
