michaeljenn Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 We started the year off with BJU English, but I am not loving the writing portions. We have used IEW in the past, so we went back to IEW. I also added Fix it! I have considered just doing IEW and Fix it! only, but am scared Fix it will not be enough grammar. Should I continue BJU grammar portions as well? Would it be too much? Opinions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellie Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 I wouldn't do both. And what is "enough" grammar? :-) There are only eight parts of speech and some thingummies like gerunds. How many years do you think he needs to formally study grammar? :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insertcreativenamehere Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 My boys are 10 and 12 and have done CLE Language Arts for several years. We jumped ship this year to Fix-It for grammar, knowing it was less intense. I'm perfectly okay with that. They have an excellent grasp of grammar and don't need heavy-duty instruction every year. I am focusing this year on grammar as it is applied to writing and Fix-It is a great fit for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
