On the recommendation of many many people I decided to go with Michael Clay Thompson's Grammar Island. http://www.rfwp.com/series3.htm After much trepidation about how to schedule this book I decided just to dive in on Wednesday and start reading it and boy am I glad I did! The kids have learned so much in just 2 days. The way he explains grammar and how words work together is phenomenal. I am so excited to have found this program and am now off to look at his entire Language Arts curriculum as I am pretty disappointed in WWE. (but that's a different post altogether)
I'm so tempted by MCT, but I have has worked so far. But it looks so neat. Let us know how it goes as you continue using it.
