Homeschool Grammar Curriculum

You may begin grammar instruction as early as 4^th Grade, however the content in Grammar Ace will still be applicable for an 8^th Grader who has never studied grammar. Begin this program with Grammar Ace in any year, 4^th Grade or higher.

No. The "5" in Grammar 5 simply means the passages studied are written at a 5^th grade reading level. Grammar 5 is appropriate for students following the recommend course progression, who read at a 5^th grade reading level or higher, and who have completed Grammar Ace.

Complete Grammar 6 after your students complete Grammar 5.

All the grammar your students need, in one self-paced program!

To teach every grammar rule in the English language, you'd need hundreds of lessons (and possibly a psychiatrist). Thankfully, your children don't need every rule to succeed. Just the ones in The Grammar Ace...

In building this course, Sonlight worked with Avyx (the publisher) to create a progressive journey through only the most practical grammar your children need. No dangling participles here. Just the tools to help young writers master any standardized test, and become better writers.

And it's all here – a complete grammar education, in one program. Your students set their own pace. Take the 36 lessons and do them in six months, or two years... you decide. The program is designed to serve kids in grades 4-7, and be all the grammar they will need.

More tools and help than ever for the teacher – you.

You'll never feel "stranded," trying to explain grammar to your students on your own.

Throughout the entire course, each lesson includes: a definition of the new rule being taught, a scripted teaching segment with examples and ideas, "In a Nutshell" section which distills the lesson to a brief, easy-to-grasp summary, two engaging and student-focused activity sheets, plus answers for everything but the free writing assignments!

Sonlight's Grammar Ace is a perfect supplement to the Language Arts programs. And it's designed to work just as well for new homeschoolers coming from a public school curriculum, too. The program also includes (and uses) the Grammar Rock portion of the delightful Schoolhouse Rock DVD, animated educational songs. These 46 beloved classics helped a generation remember their grammar, math, history, science and other subjects. It's a great teaching tool, and your kids will love singing along to "Conjunction Junction," "Unpack Your Adjectives," and more!

Have you finished The Grammar Ace but still got the grammar blues?

Never fear: Grammar 5 and Grammar 6 make grammar practical.

Students will gain mastery of grammatical concepts and build writing skills with these 72 self-directed lessons. Let the straightforward (and engaging) explanations and exercises abound.

Grammar 5 is perfect for students who are ready to put their basic grammar knowledge to use, and Grammar 6 is perfect for students who have completed Grammar 5 and are ready to strengthen their writing skills.

Users and experts agree: Fewer rules, more reading and writing.

Master teacher and curriculum expert, Dr. Ruth Beechick, says "Reading, not grammar, produces good writing.
With frequent writing practice in a variety of styles, grammar comes naturally. The basic rules are important but, according to Beechick, your students seem to learn grammar best "along the way," in context.

With Sonlight's Language Arts, your students experience plenty of practical grammar. Unlike other programs that deliver a barrage of exercises covering multiple concepts at once, Sonlight gradually introduces key writing-related grammar "gems," in the context of your children's reading and writing.

But many parents – and students – still want the more intensive coverage of grammar rules offered in previous editions of our Language Arts. Now, you can add a complete grammar education in one pace-yourself curriculum package. Order The Grammar Ace package today!
