MomN Posted March 23, 2021 Posted March 23, 2021 I'm seeing many different Killgallon books for elementary and was wondering which ones are the best. I see: -Story Grammar for Elementary School -Getting Starting with Elementary School Sentence Composing -Sentence Composing for Elementary School -Paragraphs for Elementary School Where do you start? Are they all good or are some better than others? What is the strength of this curriculum? Do you use them as a supplement or as a complete curriculum? Thanks! Quote
domestic_engineer Posted March 24, 2021 Posted March 24, 2021 This is one of my favorite Killgallon threads; I think it'll answer some of your questions. There was a recent thread, too, where someone asked about using it as a main curriculum or supplement, and most people responding said "supplement." 1 Quote

stripe Posted March 26, 2021 Posted March 26, 2021 I felt “paragraphs” incorporated a LOT of sentence composing. By the way Heinemann’s website includes a free downloadable teacher’s guide for each Killgallon book. https://www.heinemann.com/authors/837.aspx Quote

MomN Posted March 27, 2021 Author Posted March 27, 2021 Do anyone know the difference between Getting Started with Elementary School Sentence Composing & Sentence Composing for Elementary School? Quote
