I like it for eighth grade. It worked very well for my daughter last year. (She has done HOD since 3rd grade/Bigger Hearts.) You may need to do a little "hand holding" with the written narrations at first... maybe help define a topic sentence before she starts writing. I did that with my son in his...

IEW won't teach written narrations, they are totally different.
