Customer Reviews

Excellent, clearly laid out, good skills level targetting

I like this book. My 6 year old likes this book. We love the variety, so if you have to do some 'academic' work in your plan for the day, but dont feel like doing spelling, you can flip to the reading chapter, to the maths chapter, to the comprehension chapter. Its very clearly laid out, its fun (where a lot of Grade 2 material can be made to look pretty boring)and looks fun, and seems to cover most of the basics. It is NOT a be all and end all for a Grade 2-er, but for someone not following a set curriculum, this is a great provider of material so you know you are covering your bases. It could also be a great top-up if for some reason you need to top up what is happening at your school, or for example to cover in a summer. I would really recommend this.

good, solid workbook

Although there have been some negative reviews in this series, I have personally found this book to be very through and helpful to my 6 year old. It covers the core subjects for 2nd graders such as reading, language arts, spelling, and math. They all well presented, except the math part is a bit easy for my son. Not uncommon as grade levels in different states are different. I think the set up of a certain number of pages per day is convenient, and just the right amount to keep his interest. The colors and pictures are great, and the price is right! I especially like the teaching suggestions in the back of the book - giving you the option of doing as little or as much as YOU feel comfortable doing on any given subject with your child. For math, I find the Beestar worksheets (a nice web site at www.beestar.org) suit my son better. But overall, this is very good workbook. I fully intend to continue using this series as long as I can.

Great summer prep. book

Have purchased these books for years, some grade levels didn't meet my expectations... this one is wonderful! Great for summer prep, vacation and sick days. Highly recommend.

Grade 2 Comprehensive Curriculum of Basic Skills

This is a very good learning tool. I homeschool and it's just hard enough to get the young mind going and easy enough for them to catch on. I love these books!

Unit Study Supplement

This is a great workbook to supplement the unit study or thematic approach to homeschooling. Especially if your child loves worksheets!
