We finished CtG this past fall with boys roughly those ages.blessedmom2 wrote:Can anyone tell me how much writing there will be in CTG?
I used ILL and PLL with older son-at our co-op for writing for the fall semester. I used ILL / PLL with Writing Strands (very lightly) and my older son also did a literature course with some writing at our co-op for the Spring semester.
We also had quite a bit of writing for our notebook pages...summaries of the topic at hand and we tried to keep up with letters on Fridays. Other writing included copywork and dictation of the memory verses and I had the boys do simple science summaries for about 1/2 of their experiments.
I can't imagine adding in much more for my boys! Hope this helps!
