Kristen, Thanks! Have you ever looked at Easy Grammar? I think it has even shorter assignments. Just a bit each day. I've never looked at it, but I've heard good things. We do a lot of Rod & Staff orally, so that might be why my son doesn't mind it. This curriculum sounds like something *I* would enjoy though, and that is important, too. .-= Renae´s last blog ..The House God Gave Us: It’s Paid For! =-.

Hillary, you’re welcome.
Renae, Honestly, he tolerates it. He likes it better than Rod & Staff because the assignments are shorter. But sometimes the assignment has been to find ALL of the nouns, verbs, etc. in a passage and he doesn’t like those assignments. But lately it’s been hard to find anything “school” that he will say he likes.

Kristen,
I’m curious to know what your son’s reaction to this curriculum. My son is fine with Rod & Staff English, but he had a break from it last year.

Thanks for sharing about this Kristen. My oldest is only 3rd grade, but this sounds like something I would like to have on hand–even if just for my own reference right now. I love the part about the history of where our language comes from.
