prissygirls Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 I love FLL and I am looking ahead at my dd's 5th grade year. What would be a good grammar program that is similiar to FLL? I am so disappointed that it just stops at year 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3peasinapod Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 I'm doing Hake 5 next year with my dd. I waded through several curricula, including BJU, R&S, Shurley, MCT (that one is tempting), and I think Hake seems the most similar to FLL. FLL has worked so well for us, and both DDs doing it love grammar. I, too, was very disappointed there were no other installments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serinat Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 We moved to Rod & Staff, and it's fine. Boring, but gets the job done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohio12 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 I just logged on here today for the first time in FOREVER to ask the same question. I am heartbroken that FLL 4 is the last one. I looked at Rod and Staff, because that is what my version of WTM suggests, but I wonder if Susan Wise Bauer has newer advice for us. I loved that FLL was consumable and the way she teaches the concepts makes it so fun and easy to understand. We have about 15 lessons left in FLL 4 and I don't know what to do. BTW MCT is SO not my style and I can't imagine switching to that after 4 years of FLL. Also, from the excerpts I can see, both Hake and RS seem to cover the same things at the same level as FLL 4, so I am not even sure which level to choose if I did get one of those.

Tammy (TX) Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 We switched to Growing with Grammar - my son loves to do it by himself. It backtracks a bit on the diagramming compared to FLL, but it hasn't caused problems. I'm usually not a test person, but I enjoy the tests to see how he's doing and he enjoys being "graded." lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prissygirls Posted January 12, 2013 Author Share Posted January 12, 2013 Maybe FLL 5 will magically make an appearance come fall when I need it. I just love it so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohio12 Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Susan Wise Bauer is so smart and talented that I am sure she could write FLL 5 over a long weekend. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwg Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Which level Hake and GWG did everyone go with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rasa Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 After talking to Mary Hake, I decided on Hake 5 for my young FLL4 graduate. I am planning to add a selection of poems for memorization, and might mix in Killgallon Story Grammar for variety, if boredom becomes an issue.
