Vocabulary from classical roots - how many

[lgliser]

This is our first year using this and we'll be doing level 6 for my 6th graders. There are only 16 lessons. Do most people go through 2 books a year? Or do you just stretch the lessons?

Thanks for any advice!

Edited to correct the name of the curriculum!

Do you mean "vocabulary from classical roots?"

I sort of stretch the lessons by not doing them every day - sometimes I even end up skipping a week. DS is on level 4, and even at the slow pace we are taking with it, I can see him finishing at least 1.5 books per year.

I do think there is value in taking it slow and soaking some of the concepts in though.

Oops, yes - I edited it. Thank you!

Take it slow sounds great to me!

For the 4 - 5 - 6 - A books we do 2 books/year. The books get progressively harder and take longer so books B - E we go through just 1/year.

We do it one semester and do something different the other semester.  Last year we did vocab in the fall and poetry in the spring.
