Likes: We absolutely LOVE First Language Lessons. It is a quick, easy way for the children to learn language. The copywork and dictation is also perfect for them to start to learn how to write correctly. The children have retained the grammar definitions through the years easily using this program. We are currently using level 3 and they are diagramming sentences in grades 3 and 4! I am highly impressed!

Dislikes: My children struggled with the memorization lessons. Some of the poems did not interest them making them difficult to memorize. An easy fix was to allow them to pick an alternate selection (preferably by the same author, if available), and memorize that instead.
