Ok, so one other piece to fill in the puzzle. I need a grammar course for DD entering 9th grade. She has done pretty traditional work (she was in parish school till 4th grade and we did Seton in 5th grade and co-op since then).

I'm looking at doing the Winston Grammar basic with DS but he's my struggling learner. I was wondering if I could just move to the Winston Grammar advanced for her?? She doesn't really struggle with grammar per se and she's a very bright child, excellent student but I would like her to complete a more formal grammar program which we've not done since 5th grade Seton which was a bear for her. I think mainly the diagramming was exceptionally challenging as well as being the 1st year I prob. didn't give her enough guidance and the text was well, dull.   She's also completed 2 yrs of IEW at the co-op so again, I just think this would be more of a way to polish and improve this area for her. ??

I was really thinking about just buying the Seton 9 English grammar but not sure that is really the best fit and then came across Winston Grammar for ds and thought maybe this would work better.

Thanks!

There are "pre-tests" to do with the Winston Grammar so youcan see if she is ready for a certain level.

Oh, I didn't even think of using that for her.    I'll do that. Thanks!
