[quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't expect a 7 year old to know what an adverb is. However, I have noticed that my kids have spent much less time on grammar topics compared to what I did going to school in the 80s (diagramming sentences, ugh). I feel like a lot of what they do learn comes in MS and maybe 9th or 10th grade. However, while they may not know what a gerund is, but they seem to be able to speak and write English correctly and I certainly haven't wasn't giving them supplementary grammar lessons in starting in 2nd grade.
