ehanway Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Hello, We are finishing up First Language Lessons for the Well Trained Mind Level 4 and have really liked the style and pace. I would like some suggestions for Grammar curriculum after we finish. What have you used that you like? Thanks! Elizabeth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staceyshoe Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 We went from FLL 4 to Analytical Grammar, and it's going well. FLL gave me the warm fuzzies, and AG is drier. But it is meeting our needs just fine and ds enjoys it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehanway Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 Thanks for the recommendation! Is that the Junior version(orange cover)? Does it include diagramming? I have been very pleased that FLL has included that but at an elementary level. Has anyone used the Saxon Grammar and Writing curriculum? What are your thoughts on that? Does the combination of writing and Grammar work well? Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It involves the student labeling the parts of speech and then diagramming. JAG Mechanics (reddish-orange cover) is the second book, and it covers punctuation and usage.

Saddlemomma Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 We love the newly revised Fix-It Grammar by IEW. It's the only Grammer we use right now other than Latin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
