slaraine Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Has anyone used Cottage Press? At which ages did you use the various books? I am still in the planning stages and know I will be making changes for each of my children, but I keep coming back to this curriculum and questioning at what age to introduce it. The primers say they are for 2nd-5th grade (2 levels), but I think I saw on a message board ages ago that some people use them in first grade. Fable and Song is 4th-6th grade (1 level), Bards and Poets is 6+ (2 levels), and Poetics and Progym is 8+ (3 levels). The idea of switching to another curriculum in between the Cottage Press ones seems silly to my, so at the moment my plan is starting with Primer 1 in 3rd grade and completing a level a year up through 10th grade. But is Primer one going to be too low for a third grader? 2nd-5th grade seems like such a broad age range! I would love to hear anyone's experience with Cottage Press Curriculum.

Ting Tang Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 There isn’t a ton of information about CP. Someone said it has too many parts. I have been eyeing it for a while and might just try it this year once and for all. The writer worked for classical writing. I plan to perhaps use Fable for my 4th and 6th graders and the next level for my 7th grader—unless I outsource for him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
