I also like the Mennonite English and Math curriculum Rod and Staff. Their grammar instruction is amazing and easy to follow. And their prices are great too. [/quote]

Like all programs popular with the Amish, R&S is relatively inexpensive.

I have also heard good things about Rod and Staff for English, but have yet to try it.

Rod and Staff for Math I've looked at myself. It looks right for the right student, someone in the normal-to-lower IQ range. However, a more advanced kid would probably poke his eyeballs out with a stick. R&S Math is a mastery curriculum, one with lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of practice problems, slowly developing skills over time. As can be expected of a curriculum used in one-room schools, it is progressively less work for the instructor, who needs to be more hands on with younger children but doesn't need to go over the lessons as much with the older ones. Reportedly solid prep for Algebra in ninth grade.
