Yea! We're back up!
On Sunday morning my email account was hit by something and I couldn't access it. Then my blog disappeared completely to which I almost ...

Sounds like a great week. How do you like the Leaven Lumps series? How do you like Winston grammar? How do your children? Grammar is a weak subject for me and we are having a hard time with it. Are you able to understand what you are teaching?
ReplyDeleteI like the Leven Thumps series - although the kids are ahead of me so I can't say if the later books are as good as the first one.
ReplyDeleteWinston Grammar is wonderful! There are two levels - basic and advanced. We are still using the beginner level as review. It comes with cards that the kids use to build (diagram) sentences. It is very hands-on and visual. It has helped my son a lot. The teacher's manual is laid out very nice and is easy to understand. I don't know about the advanced level because we are not there yet. I also did not buy the supplemental pack because I just have the work on sentences from their journals.
