SophiaH Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Has anyone gone from FLL3 to CLE LA 4? How was the transition? Was your dc prepared? Also, how have you found the poetry sections in CLE? Or has anyone compared FLL4 to CLE LA 4? I'm looking for something a little less teacher intensive for next year, but just as gentle & repetitive. Dd needs that. We'll be using AAS and a progym writing program also so we won't need the spelling or writing. I'm mostly interested in grammar, although I love that it includes the word study and poetry, as I was thinking about dabbling in something like Poetry Primer but I'm thinking I may not need to if we use CLE? Thanks for any thoughts you might share. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miracleone Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Have you tried analytical grammar? They have a junior version now. We are using FLL 3 too but I am thinking of switching to AG bec. I heard it's good and the kids get it and don't have to do the same thing over and over again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Another Lynn Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Well, I don't have the exact experience you're looking for, but since you haven't gotten many responses, I'll give you my .02. My oldest did FLL4 (most of it.... we quit it a little early because he was 5th grade and it seemed too easy). We went from 3/4ths of FLL 4 into CLE 5 and had no problem at all. (In full disclosure we didn't finish CLE 5.... but there was no problem going from FLL to CLE). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kangato3 Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 My ds went from FLL3 to CLE 4 (Language Arts). It was a very smooth transition. The workbooks tyle of CLE actually fits his learning style much better than FLL did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marie in Oh Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 DD did FLL3 last year and is finishing up CLE LA 400 this year. It was a VERY SMOOTH transition. She had no trouble. We love CLE! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SophiaH Posted February 22, 2011 Author Share Posted February 22, 2011 Yay, responses! Thank you so much! I've looked over the S&S of CLE, and it seems that a lot of the big concepts in 4 have been covered at least somewhat in FLL3, so hopefully if anything, it will be a very easy transition. One concern I have is that I can't find that direct objects are even mentioned in CLE until level 6, and I'm really using grammar as a stepping stone and introduction to the grammar we're covering in Lively Latin. And when we start LL BB2 next month that's the first topic. But at least it's been covered a little in FLL3. But I'm wondering if there will be other things like this as well. But I'm just about set to go to CLE mainly for the more independent nature of it. So many of the subjects we'll be doing next year will be teacher-intensive and with a newborn and two other littles I'll need some work-load lifted! Thanks again!
