The lessons are so brief that my children often complete more than one each day.  Writing with Ease also dovetails very nicely with Bauer’s grammar series First Language Lessons for the Well-Trained Mind.

I am not a big fan of scripted lessons, either, but I am a fan of this book! My daughter loves to have her language lesson, and is especially enjoying the one on one time. Sometimes we are at the table and use a whiteboard, but often we can sit on the couch and chat about nouns, etc. I am so very happy I found this book, and even better I got it for FREE at a used book sale. What a blessing :) .-= Angela Mills´s last blog ..<a href="http://angelamills.wordpress.com/2009/09/21/two-words-i-can%E2%80%99t-stop-saying/" rel="nofollow">Two Words I Can’t Stop Saying</a> =-.

I've been considering when/how to teach grammar to my 1st grade daughter; this just may be my answer. Thanks! I’m glad you posted about this book, Kristen.
