I'm evaluating some choices for Grammar.  What are your favorite curriculums and why?  Which ones do you NOT like?

Thanks!

Shurley English is our favorite!  We have tried so many programs and Shurley English is the only one that's worked for them.  They are learning by leaps and bounds with Shurley English, the jingles work amazingly well for teaching the parts of speech.  They can identify the part of speech for all the words in a sentence.  They have even begun writing, and using complete sentences when they do it! 

We have previously tried and rejected: BJU, Abeka, Simply Grammar, Scholastic Grammar, No Boring Practice Please, and Grammar Made Simple.  None of it clicked in their heads and none of it helped them learn, it only made it more difficult, and more of a fight.

We  use Easy Grammar and Bob Jones (it has the writing part, and a little more practice). The ones that did not work for us was Lifepacs (I know I am in the minority here  )

We love Easy Grammar!

We have used Abeka & Climbing to Good English (like R & S)...then this. We love it. No more tears from my dd!
