MamaSprout Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 (edited) Has anyone worked this into their English class? I'm trying to figure out how to pace it. It helped when I looked at the Rule Book- I could see were Weston's book ended and supplementary material started, but I still feel like chucking it out the window. I like it better than anything else I can find for merging composition and logic. Edited October 30, 2017 by MamaSprout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skimomma Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 (edited) We're using it this year. I have a 2-credit block for history, literature, and writing. The writing portion works out to be 2/3 of a credit but is split between writing essays on history and literature topics and rhetoric. We are using this book as "rhetoric" and we pace it by completing two exercises a week which take about two hours. Some of the exercise sets take longer so we will spread them out over two days when necessary. Dd has learned a lot from it already so I am pleased. She has especially felt more confident doing essay peer reviews. Edited October 30, 2017 by skimomma 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2_girls_mommy Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 thanks for posting. I bought this, and have yet to start it for this year! My history/lit/writing/english grammar is already so full. Mine writes on history and lit as in WTM, but still studies R&S grammar w/out doing the writing and writes for a journalism class, so I just haven't gotten to this yet. If we don't start it 2nd semester I guess it gets put off til next year. I'll be watching this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
