The 13 year-old is using the junior high series and she seems to like it a lot, so I'm going to have the 15 year-old try it, as well.  

From the samples on Queen's Homeschool website, it looks like volume 2 covers:

  • Different forms of essay writing - persuasive essays, etc (which she could use more practice with)
  • Editing
  • Picture studies/narration
  • Dictation and copywork
  • Some creative writing
Here's a scope and sequence for their language workbooks, but it's not updated, because there is now a volume 3 for high school as well as a grammar workbook for high school:


Here is their complete review of high school grammar book:


I've never used anything else from the Queen Homeschool website, so I don't really have an opinion of it.
