King Alfred’s English by Laurie J. White

This year I was looking for a way to teach my girls about the English language without teaching grammar itself.  I wanted to give them an understanding of its beauty and history so that they would learn to love it and also be able to use it more skillfully. And then I was offered King Alfred’s English to review.  What a perfect resource to meet

The Word Spy

One day while wandering the aisles of the children’s library with my boys I came across a book entitled The Word Spy. It caught my attention on so many levels – I snatched it up and started reading through it. It’s beautifully written, captivating and downright funny.

Daily Grammar

Daily Grammar is a FREE curriculum that is thorough and easy to use and a comprehensive complete curriculum for older elementary and middle grade students.

Grammar is a subject near and dear to my heart. I know not everyone can (or will) admit to that, but there it is. Throughout my children’s elementary years, we explored several different grammar curricula, and all have had their good points. This year, however, I came across a FREE curriculum that is thorough and easy to use and free. (Did I mention that already?

Living Literature Grammar Packs from Shining Dawn Books

Living Literature Grammar Packs

This past September, I made my biggest curriculum mistake yet.  I had researched and thought and finally purchased a curriculum.  But when it came time to start school, I realized that I would have to do heavy editing to make the curriculum match my student’s level.  I set it aside and bought another curriculum–happily, one that we have been making progress in all year long.

A Look at Rod & Staff English

Rod and Staff English

While I love a fun, colorful program as much as the next homeschool mom, sometimes I want something straightforward and comprehensive – especially when it comes to something like grammar. That’s why I chose the Rod & Staff English series for my daughter. It may not be colorful and flashy but it’s thorough and easy for this busy homeschool mom. Rod & Staff English Rod

Write From … History

Late last year author, Kimberly Garcia, contacted and asked if we’d be interested in reviewing any of her books in the Write From History series. Did we ever! One look told me that my boys would enjoy them and I wasn’t mistaken at all. The books are wonderfully done and written with the homeschooler in mind. They are geared, especially, towards those using a Charlotte

Traditional English Sentence Style Helps Prepare Students for College-Level Composition

  Ask a college English professor and chances are he or she will tell you that most incoming freshmen are woefully unprepared for college-level compositions. Why? Consider this commentary from Dr. Robert Einarsson, professor of English at Grant Macewan University in Edmonton, Alberta: In the past, the carefully structured sentence was the medium for encapsulating and precision-stating our thoughts. Today, precision and structure seem to

Primary and Intermediate Language Lessons: Workbooks

As a Charlotte Mason homeschooler, I’ve used and loved Primary Language Lessons and Intermediate Language Lessons by Emma Serl for years and years.  The goals of the books are to create students who are confident and capable to speak and write the English language.  As my third child grows toward being ready for these, I was pleasantly surprised to find that workbook editions are now
