Easy Grammar

A friend who has home schooled many more years than I have, recommended this curriculum.  We have used it for two years now.

The high school books consist of 180 lessons designed to take only about 10 minutes each day.  Not only do they teach students new grammar concepts, those concepts are repeated throughout the year so students get to really learn them.

There are also reviews and tests so you can be sure your student is mastering important skills.  

Here are several of the ideas presented in the 9th grade workbook:

  • Capitalization
  • Punctuation
  • Sentence Combining
  • Phrases/Clauses
  • Prefixes, Roots and Suffixes
  • Sentences/Fragments/Run-ons
  • Conjunctions
  • Prepositions
  • Analogies
  • Complex Sentences
  • Dictionary Skills
