I know TWTM suggests starting with younger ages, but I would not start any of the books until a child is reading well. My children just glazed over when I started earlier. My 10 year old son is doing with with First Language Lessons 3. We did some of the older version of 1/2 orally over the years preciously. It is very heavy into diagramming. I really prefer the Queen’s workbook to them. But, I am schooling three at this point with a toddler and I am pregnant. I did not like WWE at all. I would rather they just do the occasional narration, dictation from our rad alouds. The WWE never gets done.
