As an elementary school teacher for nearly 25 years, I've taught a wide range of subjects and grade levels including several years as a combination 4th/5th-grade teacher.  During this time, in planning to meet the needs of all students, I found that teaching reading, writing, and grammar at the 4th and 5th grade level was not much different, and could easily be taught simultaneously.
