Sarahtar Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 I'm looking for something for my will-be 8th grader. We did FLL 1-4 then moved from there to Analytical Grammar, which we're finishing up this year (season 3). And we loved it. Me more than him with all the diagramming, lol. So I feel like he's got a good handle on grammar basics. But some things we've either not covered at all, or he's forgotten/I've forgotten we covered: tricky words (affect/effect), things like subject/verb agreement, etc. Is there a resource aimed at this age that would catch things like that? I don't mind review of basics, too, since we can kind of speed through those. I'm sure I could find individual lessons online and I have a whole shelf of grammar reference and style guides (I used to be a writer), but our life is such that right now, I'd just like to buy a book that's organized into obvious lessons that he can largely do on his own. And that doesn't cost a ton. I'm sure such a thing exists... what do you recommend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faithful_Steward Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 (edited) You could try Abeka's Oral Language Lessons. https://www.christianbook.com/oral-language-exercises-grades-to-6/pd/21849X It is meant to be a supplement and takes less than 5 min/day.

Sarahtar Posted January 9, 2017 Author Share Posted January 9, 2017 IT's possible that what I want doesn't exist. I ended up chatting at Rainbow Resource, and she said she didn't know of anything, lol. I've never stumped Rainbow Resource before. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
