Great reviews
I like the comprehensive nature of this curriculum and that it incorporates reading classic novels in entirety, as well as excerpts from others.
I've used this before and loved it! I had an older edition and the books were hard to find. But this one was all available! My 5th grade son is very excited to start this soon!
Reading classics, language arts, composition, grammar, and reading comprehension in a single program. I like the immersion technique applied by this program.
