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.

I am planning on using PLL/Stories with a View for my 3rd and 4th graders next year. Would you feel it neccessary to also purchase Seton English FYC or the reading comp workbooks for either of those grades? I would give 1 or 2 lessons from them per week in addition to the PLL/SwaV lessons. I'm thinking PLL/SWAV are enough by themselves, but I'm needing reassurance. However, I'd be grateful if someone honestly told me doing without them is an error. Thanks.

Just my opinion but no, I think stories with a View and Primary Language Lessons are certainly sufficient on their own. Its all I do in this area

I use both of those, but I do supplement with the CHC Language of God. It is not intense, does not require much writing (a lot of fill in the blank, circling, underlining, etc.), and it wonderfully Catholic. I don't know what the Seton book is like.

For me, it seems to provide some extra practice that we needed in grammar, but every child is so different.

By the way, Stories with a View is beautiful and one of my favorite purchases for the year.
