Guest StateDOG Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 My daughter just finished Level 4 of First Language Lessons. There are no other books offered in that series. Is there a recommendation of what to move onto next? Is it a product from w/in the Well Trained Mind curriculum? Or is there another curriculum that most move onto? Thanks in advance!

KrissiK Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 I was wondering that myself. We are finishing with the first book this and I really like it, but I'm wondering what comes after 4th grade. If nothing is planned then I'm thinking about just continuing with A Beka, which is what we're doing along side of FLL to keep some continuity. Does anyone know anything about this? Or have any plans? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stacy in NJ Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 I don't think they intend on continuing with the series past 4th grade. I few option to consider: Rod & Staff, JAG, Growing with Grammar, Saxon Grammar, or Shurley Grammer.

Blue Ray Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 We decided to use A Beka "God's Gift of Language" - It has a lot of bright colors and cute pictures which at first, my 10 year old son did not like. However, after using it for a bit, he seemed to get over it.lol I think so far, the lessons are easy for him to actually do a lot on his own. So that is a plus. So far so good. :) PS: he is in 5th grade level. Used all the First languages. They became too repetitive. Glad for something new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitestavern Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 We moved into MCT Town level and are enjoying it very much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurie in Life Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 We finished FLL4 and moved right into R&S English 5 without skipping a beat. I thought the two programs really complemented each other well. R&S may seem a bit repetitive at first in terms of some FLL4 areas but new topics are soon sprinkled in. The thing to remember about R&S is that you don't have to do EVERYTHING that is available. If your child gets a concept, you don't need to do everything offered for a given lesson.

ELaurie Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 although no information is available about publication dates at this time. I decided to take a year off from grammar for ds 11, and wait for FLL 5, rather than switching programs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NavyWifeandMommy Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I am using ACE 5th grade. I wanted something independant for my daughter and decided on ACE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
