monalisa Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 I'm going round & round on grammar for dd9. We didn't quite finish FLL3 (got to lesson 78 or so) because of upheaval of adopting a baby. So now I am going back & forth on FLL or R&S 4 (which I bought at convention). I like R&S better than FLL in many ways, but there is so much writing which DD is going to struggle with (I know I can do it orally, but then why not just do FLL if it is going to be that teacher intensive). I wonder if I should just stick with FLL and switch to R&S or Hake for 5th grade. If I do go with FLL, should I just start the school year fresh with FLL4, or do I need to finish FLL3 with dd first? I don't own FLL4 to compare, but I think I remember there is a lot of review in the beginning. Opinions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truebluexf Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 (edited) Everything will be reviewed, so I say move forward! :) That said, I'm not sold on FLL3 & 4 yet...it's all pending DD's test next year. DS did terrible on that section of his CAT, mainly bc there wasn't enough written work on correcting, finding parts of speech, etc. I don't feel like he truly learned/retained from it. This year we didn't do much grammar at all, except Daily Grammar Practice workbook, for a month or two at the end of the year (health issues with my youngest meant we only got through25 lessons of FLL4) and he did amazing.
