Connie, I only have examined two Grammar programs for K-12: One is called"Multimedia High School Grammar" and is usually on sale for about $10 from Staples or Office Max; its produced by Pro One Software, Las Cruces NM. The other is called "Grammar Games" and is put out by Davidson & Associates. I don't have a copy of it on hand, so I can't really tell you more, except that it seemed geared for middle school through maybe 9th grade - and that parts of it were fun to use. Both are on CD-Rom, are easy to use, and are pretty basic. Good Luck, Paul D.
