My kids have used Bob Jones Writing and Grammar for 4-5 years and they are thoroughly grounded in their grammar Their scores on standardized tests show that Bob Jones has given them a solid foundation in grammar My kids currently use Writing and Grammar 8 and find that the new edition is clear and easy to use My only suggestion is that before having your student take each chapter test first have them do the chapter concept reinforcement on the CD provided with the teachers guide The answer key is also on the CD and will give the parent/teacher a clear idea as to whether they are ready for the test In general this curriculum is complete and easy to use

It is an excellent product.
