Very Good Practice for EG/PG Home Supplementation

I found this by accident at a Books-A-Million store. I have a PG 3yr old who reads near 4th grade level but needs work in comprehension (presently at late 1st grade level in comprehension). I needed a book that (a) didn't tax his writing skills which are age-appropriate (b) didn't have a lot of pictures - he too good at context "guessing" and (c) could be completed in small, time-limited doses (he's still only 3). This book met that criteria well.The exercises are progressive and there is enough practice of each skill to gain mastery. The work moves smoothly without any chasms where one topic abruptly ends and the next starts with no apparent connection (like some of the JumpStart workbooks). And the pages are simple and uncluttered encouraging focus onthe words and not the surroundings. An answer key and several success certificates are included as are some vocabulary flash cards for the vocabulary bingo game that's included. The pages are perforated for easy removal and duplication for your classroom or student.Why didn't I give this a 5? A few reasons. First - it's very hard to find this series (which goes from at least Grade 1-6). Second, there are a few typos which need catching in order for the learner to get the right answer.Other than that, it's been great. My kid loves the challenge but feels like he can succeed.
