I am looking for workbooks my DD will be able to do in her 6th grade LA class this year.
To re-cap - as a fifth grader she has been attending highest level 6th grade LA class (school places by ability)and after a few months has been offered a grade skip. We did not take advantage of a grade skip (long story) so she will be kind of re-doing what she has done last year, with kids of much lesser ability. Not the best situation, but we are determined to make the best of it. There is an option of her taking 7th grade LA in middle school, but last year the teacher was so lousy, that I did not even want to think about it. This year the teacher is new, so I don't know, maybe, but for now I am trying to get my daughter some workbooks that she will be able to work on in class. ^Her 6th grade LA teacher is very well known to me so I am expecting that she wil play along quite nicely. As part of the 6th grade La my daughter will have to submit weekly essays and she will be working on a school paper.
Any suggestions? I know that some private/boarding schools use some great LA/vocabulary building workbooks.
