[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our private school teaches that in 5th. I don't think I learned it until 7th growing up. [/quote] Growing up in Catholic school in the 70s-80s, I think we learned basic parts of speech maybe around 3rd grade, adverbs/adjectives/prepositions around 4th grade, and diagramming in maybe 6th or 7th. All of the kids were familiar with the terms from a young age due to School House Rock (Lolly lolly lolly get your adverbs here...Interjection! An excitement! And emotion! Alleluiah!) Everyone watched the same 2-4 channels on Saturday morning so we were all familiar with the same things. I don't find it unusual that my second grader has not yet been taught more complicated parts of speech like adverbs.[/quote]
