Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Has anyone used Saxon Grammar? As tedious as Saxon Math is, my kids really learn math concepts well with it. Regarding Grammar, I used VIE with my ds and am currently using Easy Grammar with my dd in 6th. The trouble is, with both of these programs, while I think they are good programs, my kids don't retain what they learn. I think they need the spiral approach that Saxon offers, just like they do in math. I feel like the composition part of this book would be overkill though, since we do writing in other subjects. I sort of feel like that part of it would be wasted.
Anyone have experience with Saxon? Are there any other grammar programs out there with a spiral approach?
