Bay Lake Mom Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 I am looking into using MFW 9th grade for my daughter. She is behind in grammar and writing skills, and I'm curious if the English component can be swapped out? She is definitely not ready for writing papers on her own. Has anyone done this successfully or is it too integrated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loowit Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 It depends on how much you want to switch out. If you just want to drop the writing assignments, that wouldn't be too hard. However, keeping the literature is pretty important as it follows along with the history period that you are doing. I tweaked the writing assignments for my middle child who wasn't ready for papers yet, and it worked pretty well for him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbollin Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 agreeing with Loowit. When my middle did AHL, I helped her with writing assignments. I thought of it as sending her to writing tutor/writing center. and for grammar skills she did "Easy Grammar grade 9 ultimate series". only took 5-10 minutes a day extra and was nice to do. I probably didn't count that first essay all that harshly and we worked on it together. She wasn't as ready and that's part of homeschooling is to add what they need. Oh, you know what, I think she was the student I did IEW's Elegant Essay with and did that with her a month before officially starting AHL. kind of summer school/writing camp thing.
