urban_mom Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Hi all. I'm home schooling a group of kids of various grades/levels. My plan is to use Growing with Grammar for the 1st and 2nd graders (grade one for both since the 2nd grader hasn't had much/any grammar as far as I know) and then to buy Michael Clay Thompson's Grammar Island and Practice Island to do with the 3rd/4th graders. Does that sound like a good plan? The 3rd/4th graders haven't had much grammar either, so they COULD do the GWG early stuff as well, but my hope is that the MCT stuff will get them going quicker since they are all smart/capable girls that are strong readers and ready to get it, I think. Along with the rest of it, we've been reading through the book "Grammar Land" which we found online. It personifies parts of speech. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasharowan Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Sounds like a good plan to me. I have used GWG for 3rd and 4th grades with kids who have had only the Comprehensive Curriculum books for grammar. They then moved into MCT Town level books without a problem.
