Placement Advice Please
Hi! I'm throwing around some ideas and trying to figure out what is best for my kiddos. I admit that running multiple guides (4
) scared me to bits so I chose something else. I'm still not sure where we will end up according to curriculum choices but I'd like to ask a question about placement. Ideally, if we later go with HOD I'd like to combine my [then] 6th and 7th graders. I believe it will be possible to buy the guide for the younger student and get the extension for the older. With that said, we have not done any diagramming so would it be fine to use a guide that expects the student to know how to diagram? He fits the other guidelines. We would probably not use R&S English anyway, which is where I assume the diagramming would come from. We will probably stick with Intermediate Language Lessons, which does not teach diagramming.
Thanks for the help!

Re: Placement Advice Please
The diagramming is only in Rod and Staff so if you are not using that you will be fine. The only problem with not using Rod and Staff is that you don't get as much writing instruction since some of it is in Rod and Staff.
