    Hi There,

    Right now for grammar or English we are using English Workshop.  It’s a basic English textbook, but I find it very redundant.  I would love to fine a curriculum which teaches grammar in a more simple way and teaches how to write various styles of papers.  It would be great to teach grammar through writing.  But I need something that can be done independently by my 15 yr old.  Does this exist?  Thanks for any help!

    Blessings, Betty

    Hi Betty,

    This may not be exactly what you’re looking for, but my 15yo ds uses The Writing Course by  Fred Lybrand. Mr Lybrand is a homeschooling Father of 5 with an English Major. He incorporates grammar directly into the course. I can not say enough GOOD things about it! Here are a few links; reviews & info..

    Heather,

    Thank you so much for this link.  I’m taking a serious look at it.  We might switch things out!
