LA in Bigger for the extension?

Post by my12kiddos » Sat May 11, 2013 5:35 am

I'm going to buy the extension for Bigger for my 4th grader. What grammar do I use? He hasn't had much grammar. Will R&S 2 be a good gentle year? Or to easy?

It is really easy. Has he had any grammar? I guess you could always start him in the level 2 book where you think he needs to start and finish up if necessary, but maybe have level 3 on hand for when he's done. It starts really basic, like God made the words, God made sentences, everything has order, etc. We're 6 weeks into it our second child (7.5 yrs) around and just getting into naming words. Hope that sheds some light.

I think you could start a 4th grader in R&S 3, skipping R&S 2.
