  • During my homeschool prep and planning, I found some great Evan-Moor language arts workbooks that I wanted to add to my daughter's 8th grade curriculum. In today's video I'm sharing "Language Fundamentals" and "Grammar & Punctuation" and helping you decide which one to use in your homeschool.

    I watched one of your older videos and decided to try evan moor and we love it. I love your comparison videos though because without ever seeing it before it can be very hard to decide which one to purchase.

    • @aplacetonest

    Perfect topic for me, as I am planning on using some Evan Moor in our homeschool for next year (Grades 8, 6 and 1). I have never tried them before but I want something more open and go and less teacher intensive than we have purchased before. I am still deciding which books to use.

    Thanks for this vid! Our 2nd grader started Fix it Grammar this year and we got to about week 6 and it started to get really hard for her anddd me!! So we decided to put it away for a year or two and try something else and these 2 books look great! can't go wrong with Evan Moor!

    I am embarking on my second year of homeschool and have been overwelmed with most of the curriculms I have came across. So, thank you so much for your honesty about the flexibilty of the level of the book compared to the actual grade level of the child. The most important thing is that the child feels confident in the skill level they are working on, no matter the level.and not frustrated. This has definitely change my prespective on how to go about chosing my 4th graders books for the upcoming school year.

    Thank you for your video. It is very helpful for me to decide which one to get for language arts.
    In addition, I recently received a brochure from this company. There are some new items this year, such as STEAM project-based learning, culturally responsive lessons and activities, and financial literacy. Have you seen any of these new books? Are they worth trying?

    • @aplacetonest
      @aplacetonest  Рік тому +1

      I haven't tried any of those but anything from Evan-Moor is always so well done!

    Hi Becky! Thanks for making these videos, they are great resources for curating our own curriculum. One question: If you have the Evan-Moor Teacher File Box, is there a benefit to continuing to buy the physical books? I haven't looked too far into the Teacher File Box yet, but I'm considering it because of how many Evan-Moor books I've used and loved. Thanks!

    • @aplacetonest
      @aplacetonest  Рік тому

      I think the main purpose of Teacher File Box is to curate lessons, not necessarily to print entire books. While you can do that, it's not set up to do it very easily since they require you to print one lesson at-a-time.

      No, but next week I'm sharing a writing program that mimics IEW and EIW.

    I know this is an older video but I'm considering using language fundamentals for my third grader next year for grammar. I'm finding conflicting information on whether this is enough to be a stand alone curriculum for grammar or if you think it's better used as a supplement to another grammar program? Most of what I'm finding in UA-cam makes it sound like it's a supplement, not a main curriculum since you've used it I'm hoping for your opinion on this.
    My son is a reluctant learner and I'm struggling to find a grammar program that will be enough to teach him what he needs to know without pushing him too hard and overwhelming him. This looks like it would be a good fit but I'm concerned about whether it's enough all in it's own to be the grammar part of our curriculum. I appreciate any insight you can offer!

      For me, at that age, it’s enough. It takes just a few minutes and I try to reinforce the topics in their writing.
      I have them do these books multiple years and the repetition is helpful for my reluctant learners.

    Thanks for the video. What made the decision to leave BJU English after all the years you had used them?

    • @aplacetonest
      @aplacetonest  Рік тому +1

      We moved away from BJU Press for english because I am wanting to lead my daughter into more independent study and BJU is still very much parent/teacher-led. I still love the program and highly recommend it!

    • @eo6357
      @eo6357 Рік тому

      Thanks I noticed the same, especially since it is designed for private schools with spiral testing and five days a week worth of instruction, that just became a bit too much for my household of homeschooling three kids. I have sense term to the good and the beautiful because of the sweet instruction and literature but also using Masterbooks English with an Evan Moore supplement. Everyone is independent and that works a lot better. Bob Jones to me is strictly institutional and I just wanted a more read aloud type of atmosphere more relaxed but get good instruction for grammar and writing.

    Are the answers in the back or do you have to purchase an answer guide also..or teachers manual

    Are the answer keys in the workbook or do you have to purchase it separately

    • @aplacetonest

      Yes, they're included in the back of the book.
