This is a wonderful course that seems to be well thought out for a curriculum. I am impressed with the way that it helps the student organize their thoughts and time management during the writing processes.

Too much and too little.
See my review on the Grade 6 booklets. I have not found a suitable alternative for 11th grade. Dual-enrollment at the local community college will probably be my choice.
