SWO-G & VFCR-C simultaneously for 7th gr.?

[Angela in NC]

DD is scheduled to do SWO-G & VFCR-C this year (7th gr.). She has done well with the previous books, but now that SWO is more word roots; do I need to do both? Should I finish the SWO series in 8th gr. and save the rest of VFCR for high school? Thank you for your imput, Angela

We usually do two SWO books a year. I think you could finish up SWO for 7th and then start VFCR for 8th. I don't think I'd do both at the same time, as they are somewhat similar.
